Nicolas Potel was an iconic figure and pioneering force in Burgundy’s modern winemaking landscape. A native of Volnay with winemaking in his blood, he built his reputation early on through a natural affability that helped him establish a broad and lasting network within the wine trade. After studying viticulture in Beaune and gaining experience both locally and abroad, he founded Maison Roche de Bellene in 1997 - a négociant house dedicated to small-lot bottlings with a strong focus on sourcing old-vine parcels. He later expanded the range with Collection Bellenum, which specializes in the acquisition and release of carefully cellared, well-aged vintages from growers with a tradition of long-term ageing. An early advocate of organic farming and a consistent champion of terroir expression, Potel was widely respected for his vision and integrity; he tragically passed away in the summer of 2025, leaving behind a significant legacy in Burgundy and beyond.

An elegant, dry, medium-bodied Pinot Noir made from old vines. The nose is lifted and complex, with earthy, floral aromatics alongside ripe red berries and cherry. The palate is finely balanced and expressive, unfolding in layers of sweet spice, savoury herbs, and a subtle flinty note that frames a pure core of red fruit.

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 wine comes from a 40-acre parcel planted in 2004 within Clos Rousseau. Favourable climatic conditions and vineyard topography encourage the development of noble rot in a small portion of the fruit (approximately 2%), lending an exotic aromatic lift. Subtle oak integration adds notes of sweet spice and toasted hazelnut on the nose, while the palate delivers good density and texture, with mid-weight flavours that mirror the aromatics and lead into a gently pithy, mineral-tinged finish.

The Amiot family has been rooted in the Chassagne-Montrachet terroir for generations. Founders Flavie and Arsène relocated from Paris to raise their family, acquiring outbuildings and vineyards and ultimately establishing the domaine in 1920. Originally known as Domaine Arsène Amiot, the estate quickly distinguished itself through its early commitment to estate bottling—an uncommon practice at the time when many growers sold wine in bulk. The distinctive bottles became easily recognizable to clientele, helping to build a dedicated direct-sales network and laying the foundation for a long-standing winemaking tradition. By the late 1980s, under the leadership of the founder’s grandson Guy, the domaine entered a new era. A trained oenologist, he produced notable vintages, expanded international trade, and significantly elevated the estate’s global reputation. 

An iconic white wine from Chassagne-Montrachet, sourced from a dozen vineyard parcels spread across the lower slopes with exposures ranging from northeast to southwest. Shaped by the region’s clay-limestone soils and cool morning sunlight, it beautifully balances generous fruit, vibrant freshness, and refined mineral character.

Brilliant pale gold with subtle green reflections, the wine opens with expressive aromas of ripe yellow-fleshed fruit accented by delicate hints of vanilla. The palate follows through with layers of apple, pear, peach, honey, and almond, carried by invigorating acidity that lends clear definition and structure. Exceptionally aromatic and well-balanced, capturing both the richness and elegance that define this renowned appellation.
