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.

Since 2009, the Nuits Saint Georges Villages vat has been sourced from four different climats, with the vineyards having undergone extensive restructuring efforts to fully convert to organic farming. The nose opens with fresh aromas of black fruit berries, complemented by subtle ferrous undertones and hints of undergrowth. The palate presents medium-weight, ripe fruit flavours gently embraced by finely-grained tannins. The mineral quality re-surfaces on the finish, lingering elegantly.

94 Points - John Szabo, MS

From vines planted in 1952, harvested quite early, in the first days of September and aged in 25% new wood. The result is, like many 2022s, a ripe and fruity, almost monolithic example - I find it hard to distinguish terroirs in this vintage, though this has a significant degree of flesh and complexity, and in the end, it stands out for its cool limestone character, a sort of stoniness that other wines do not seem to possess, and indeed a strong sense of sapidity, salinity and minerality. Sharp value. Drink 2027-2034.
