Established in 2005, Domaine de Bellene is dedicated to crafting expressive wines from old vines, guided by a strong commitment to sustainable, organic farming. Under the stewardship of winemaker and proprietor of the late Nicolas Potel, the domaine has focused on producing wines that faithfully reflect both place and vintage, while safeguarding the land and its traditions for future generations. Today, Domaine de Bellene is widely respected among Burgundy enthusiasts for its thoughtful range of wines spanning both celebrated and lesser-known appellations.

This cuvée is sourced from a blend of three distinct vineyard parcels, offering ripe aromas of dark cherry and pomegranate layered with warm, earthy undertones. The palate is generous and flowing, with well-integrated tannins that lend a gentle, drying grip to the lush, sappy fruit. The finish is vibrant and expressive, capturing a sense of youthful energy and freshness.

About the Winery

Groupe Bellene

Led by Nicolas Potel in Beaune, Groupe Bellene is composed of the négociant arm Maison Roche de Bellene, the winery arm Domaine de Bellene, and a special back-vintage series under the Collection Bellenum label. 

  • Maison Roche de Bellene offers a complete range of wines, with an emphasis on individual terroirs from old vines of more than 40 years. All of the growers that Nicolas works with are either organic certified or sustainably farmed.
  • Domaine de Bellene represents the wines that are produced and bottled from Nicolas Potel's private vineyard holdings. 
  • Collection Bellenum is a back vintage series that Nicolas Potel sourced from his friends in the region, offering a magnificent selection of bottled history. The wines have moved only twice in their lives, from the original cellar to Potel's and now to yours!

Nicolas Potel grew up at Volnay's Domaine Pousse d'Or, where his father worked. He trained abroad and returned home in 1996 to build a négociant business and started Maison Nicolas Potel, where he sourced grapes from good parcels, often working with the growers to improve the quality. By 2002, he was making 120 wines from 50 different appellations, and the rest is history!

Press Reviews

91 Points (2023) - Michael Godel

Old vines (meaning 40-plus years of age) are the source for a Villages-level Savigny-les-Beaune that fulfills the quality quota of the vintage. Simply executed because hue conspires with mouthfeel using acidity as the catalyst to achieve overall structure. A crisp, crunchy and herbaceous Savigny, certainly less refined than the Premier Cru (Hommage à Jean Ferté) but worthy in its own right because of ample fruit maturity and accumulation. Quite tannic on the follow-through to tell us 2027 and beyond are when the wine will become open for business. Drink 2027-2031.
