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 wine opens with a richly aromatic bouquet of ripe black cherry, cranberry, baked earth, and subtle spice, all gently framed by well-integrated oak. On the palate, it's dense and firmly structured, showcasing the hallmark tension of Les Grèves through its ripe, yet robust tannic backbone. A supple, rounded mid-palate adds contrast to the slightly drying, but layered finish. With cellaring, the tannins are expected to soften, revealing the wine’s full depth and refined elegance over time.
This 1er Cru will pair beautifully with savoury dishes that echo its depth and spice. Try with grilled lamb sausages or air-dried saucisson with cracked black pepper.
