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 cuvée is crafted from a blend of three distinct vineyard plots, revealing ripe aromas of dark cherry and pomegranate interwoven with warm earthy undertones. On the palate, it is voluminous, featuring integrated tannins that provide a subtle drying sensation to the lush, sappy fruit. The finish is vibrant and expressive, marked by youthful exuberance.

91 Points - Michael Godel

Old vines (meaning 40-plus years of age) are the source for a Villages-level Savigny-les-Beaune that fulfills the quality quota of the vintage. Simply executed because hue conspires with mouthfeel using acidity as the catalyst to achieve overall structure. A crisp, crunchy and herbaceous Savigny, certainly less refined than the Premier Cru (Hommage à Jean Ferté) but worthy in its own right because of ample fruit maturity and accumulation. Quite tannic on the follow-through to tell us 2027 and beyond are when the wine will become open for business. Drink 2027-2031.
