Founded in 2005, Domaine de Bellene focuses on crafting wines from old vines with a commitment to sustainable, organic farming. Winemaker and proprietor Nicolas Potel's approach emphasizes producing wines that authentically reflect their origins and vintages, while preserving the land and culture for future generations. Under his leadership, Domaine de Bellene has earned respect among Burgundy enthusiasts, offering wines from both renowned and lesser-known appellations.

This appellation comprises seven plots of vines planted between 1930 and 1975, situated across the three slopes of Saint-Romain. The wine offers aromas of citrus-infused pear, complemented by hints of mineral reduction and Granny Smith apples. Its flavours are caressing, vibrant, and delicious, offering good weight & texture. The finish is lightly stony, crisp, and refreshing.

92 Points - Michael Godel

In this case old vines takes on greater meaning with 55 years being the average and the age carries weight as witnessed by the volumetric presence of this Beaune locale. You can feel the weight and presence in the perfumes alone, mellifluous and full floral, a Saint-Romain quality that simply makes this one of the best values for Chardonnay anywhere in Bourgogne. Or the world for that matter because layering, complexity and length are all outstanding, not to mention the exquisite nature of its touch upon the palate. Drink 2025-2030. This is a very fine, linear, tight and delicious chardonnay from a Cote de Beaune village relatively off-the-radar, thus very well priced. The nose is well lifted, a touch reductive, flinty and mineral driven, with pear, lemon, hazelnut, nutmeg and subtle coffee roast. It is medium bodied, tightly wound but not austere. The length is excellent, exuding great acidity and minerality on the finish.
