Côte de Nuits-Villages, Vieilles Vignes, Domaine de Bellene 2022 En Primeur - Case of 6

He has also assembled his own 26 ha of vineyards with those wines going under his Domaine de Bellene label, Bellene being a Latin name for Beaune. With these two hats on, Nicolas can field an impressive range of wines, with us selecting our favourites each year to offer to our customers. He also supplies our Tanners Red Burgundy. Nicolas has all the contacts necessary to buy top quality grapes and wine, even barrels of illustrious grand cru wines from top growers. Many of these links date from the days that his father, Gérard Potel, managed Domaine de la Pousse d’Or in Volnay and was a leading figure in the rise of domaine-bottled burgundies. Nicolas is always brim-full of ideas, his infectious energy always spilling into plenty of new projects and wines. Sustainability is always high on the agenda, whether it is working the vineyards organically or in the design of his winery which occupies 16th century, once military, buildings in Beaune. With his heart in the Côte de Beaune, this is also a great source of wines from the Côte Chalonnaise and the Côte de Nuits.
