Goedhuis, December 2011
The last of Gevrey's 1er Crus before reaching Brochon, this is a lovely wine. Sweet, intense, darkloganberry aromas; in the mouth it has breadth with hints of wild, gamey dark berried flavours. A very interesting wine with true 1er Cru complexities.

This is also very strongly marked by its wood and while the overall sense of transparency is slightly better, I have the same questions here that I do with the Combe Aux Moines. Drink: 2020+.

Firm ruby colour. A bit of oak marks this but there is lots of density of fruit. Prunes and walnuts. Tough. Fruit should return. Drink 2017-2023

Son of the family who used to own the illustrious Domaine de la Pousse d’Or, Nicolas Potel set up his négociant label Maison Roche de Bellene in 2008. A Bourguignon through and through, Nicolas’ unrivalled local network of thoroughly reliable grower-suppliers allows him to source fruit from the most sought-after parcels in the Côte. He also produces a selection of domaine wines (under Domaine de Bellene). The emphasis remains to this day on well-sited venerable vines and viticulture and the Maison Roche de Bellene label is the superlative source of attractive, well-priced Burgundy wines. Nicolas chose the name ‘Bellene' in honour of the ancient Roman name for Beaune.Read less
Region
Gevrey Chambertin
The greatest village in terms of notable grand cru vineyards, Gevrey Chambertin has no less than 9 of them including its most famous Chambertin and Chambertin Clos de Bèze, and includes a premier cru vineyard that many people deem grand cru in quality - Clos St. Jacques. It encompasses approximately 400 hectares under vine also making it the largest top quality vineyard area in the Côte de Nuits. Gevrey-Chambertin has many followers who seek out its deeply coloured, robust and textured wines. They are often firmer than the neighbouring appellations of Chambolle Musigny and Vosne Romanée and can take several years to soften once released. Due to its size and reputation, the list of excellent producers is noteworthy and many are worth seeking out.
