Roche & Domaine de Bellene

Born and bred in Burgundy, Nicolas Potel, the man behind Roche de Bellene, describes himself as a ‘Haute Couture’ negoçe (merchant).

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.

About En Primeur

Lying Abroad/En Primeur/In Bond Wines

Wines offered ‘Lying Abroad’ or ‘En Primeur’ provide a good way to secure some of the most sought after wines at opening prices. In addition we ensure it is the cheapest way to buy favourite mid-priced wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy and the Rhône, so please ask us for our offers or check our website for latest reports. Prices are clearly marked in our sales literature and are exclusive of duty, shipping, marine insurance and VAT. Shipment of claret and Port normally takes place around 30 months after the vintage, burgundy and Rhône usually more quickly. A second invoice for the duty, shipping, marine insurance and VAT on the value of the wine is charged at the time of shipment - view current duty rates. There are no further charges for deliveries to a UK mainland home or work address. Your Lying Abroad purchases are covered under The Bunch Code of Practice which can be sent on request or viewed here.
