Nicolas Potel is an iconic producer and pioneer in the Burgundy winemaking scene. He grew up in a family dedicated to wine; and after gaining some experience internationally, he started his own project in the late 90's. The Maison Roche de Bellene offers a complete range of carefully cultivated and versatile wines, often made from old vines. All of the Maison wines are made with respect to sustainable and natural farming practices, with as little intervention as necessary to showcase their individual terroirs.  

Opening up with a pure bouquet of white flower petals and honeysuckle that merge into soft honeyed aromas layered over top apple, pears and crème pâtissière. On the palate the wine reveals great depth and balance sewn together with a delicate thread of acidity. Lees ageing adds weight and texture to the wine, while soft oak notes melt into the orchard and citrus flavours infusing gentle spices into the outstanding finish. 

Indulge when pairing this wine with food & match its rich complexity with a lobster bisque or duck foie gras with stuffed artichokes.

Potel created the Bellenum Collection to offer exceptional wines at an affordable price. These wines highlight the developmental stages of specific vintages and showcase the diversity of Burgundy's climats. He selected the best crus and cuvées from over 2,500 wines, featuring notable vintages from as early as 1959.

Gentle aromas mingle with subtle green herbal notes, unfolding into a graceful mid-palate evolution accented by delicate florals and hints of fennel, graphite, and garrigue. The palate is supported by refined tannins and beautifully rounded acidity, leading to a poised, lingering finish enriched with warm, spiced fruit preserves.

As at many family domaines with deep roots in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, vigneron Alexandre Favier was by his own account “raised in the vineyards”: Alexandre’s grandfather, Noël Sabon, is from one of the best known winemaking families in the region. Alexandre himself began his viticultural studies in Orange at the age of fifteen and passed the exams four years later in 2001. A year later (at age twenty!) he took over winemaking duties at the domaine when his father experienced health problems. Today, Domaine Chante Cigale is one of the most important family estates of Châteauneuf-du-Pape.

This is a traditional house with 40 hectares of red grapes and 5 hectares of white. They have parcels in all of the main soil types of Châteauneuf and they vinify the top parcels separately. Only native yeasts are employed in the cellar.

A full-bodied white with rich, ripe pear fruit that develops into floral and herby peachiness. The wine has a long leesy character and fresh acidity. Attractive when young but worth leaving for a couple of years, which will allow the wine to develop some wonderful nutty and mineral notes.

Enjoy this white blend with grilled red mullet with charred onion and pine nuts.
