The wine exhibits a deep, transparent cherry red hue, indicative of its concentration and purity. Aromas of pure dark cherry and wild berry fruit are prominent, complemented by subtle notes of wood spice, adding complexity to the bouquet. On the palate, it reveals a deep, sinewy structure with ripe tannins and juicy acidity, characteristic of a full Grand Cru texture. Flavours of dark cherry and wild berries persist, with a balanced minerality that adds depth. The finish is long and harmonious, with the wine's structure promising excellent aging potential.

Maison Roche de Bellene is a distinguished négociant and winery based in Beaune, the heart of the Burgundy wine region in France. It was established in 2009 by Nicolas Potel, a well-respected figure in the Burgundian wine community. Nicolas comes from a winemaking family and brings a wealth of experience and a deep respect for the traditions of Burgundy to his enterprise.

Maison Roche de Bellene focuses on producing wines from carefully selected grapes sourced from various esteemed vineyards across Burgundy. The Maison is known for its commitment to quality and its emphasis on expressing the unique characteristics of each vineyard's terroir. This commitment is evident in their meticulous selection process for grapes and the traditional winemaking methods they employ.

The portfolio of Maison Roche de Bellene includes a wide range of Burgundy wines, from regional appellations to prestigious Grand Crus. Nicolas Potel is particularly noted for his ability to craft wines that reflect the nuances of each vintage, maintaining a natural balance and purity of flavor. The wines are typically marked by their elegance, complexity, and longevity.

Additionally, Maison Roche de Bellene has a unique collection known as the "Collection Bellenum." These are rare older vintages that Nicolas Potel has acquired from various cellars around Burgundy, which he reconditions and bottles under this special label. This initiative has been praised for offering wine enthusiasts the opportunity to experience mature Burgundy wines that are not often available in the market.

Overall, Maison Roche de Bellene is celebrated for blending traditional Burgundian craftsmanship with a modern approach to wine selection and aging, creating wines that are both expressive of their origins and appealing to contemporary palates.

The French Wine region of Burgundy (aka “Bourgogne”) may be small in size, but its influence is huge in the world of vino. The complexity of Burgundy can cast fear into the heart of even a seasoned wine pro, but fear not – the region need only be as complicated as you want it to be. Yes, it is home to some of the most expensive wines in the known universe, but there are also tasty and affordable wines.

Main grapes:

Pinot Noir originated in Burgundy and these vines cover 34% of the region, accounting for 29% of overall wine production. The red grape does extremely well in limestone and clay soil, which helps create their complexity. Pinot Noir wines from Burgundy range in colour from cherry to brick, are light in body, and typically have red fruit and spicy flavours. Gamay is a red grape also grown in Burgundy, but only makes up 10% of the vines.

Chardonnay is the primary grape for white wines in Burgundy, making up 48% of the vines and 68% of production. Chardonnay appreciates Burgundy’s marl soil, which gives it delicate floral, fruit, and mineral aromas and full-bodied flavours. Aligoté is the second white grape, accounting for 6% grown. {Read more about the ancient Aligoté grape in Burgundy.}

The region does produce a sparkling wine called Crémant de Bourgogne. It can be made from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Aligoté, Gamay, Sacy, and Melon. Varieties include blanc, blanc de blancs, blanc de noirs, and rosé.
