  • Goedhuis, December 2017

    Its vibrant ruby colour perfectly describes its aromas of juicy, sweet hedgerow fruits. With a cassis-like concentration the palate is supple and rich with a creamy texture to the tannins and fine, fresh length. Fruity and delightful, this is excellent value and will drink well from youth.

  • Jancis Robinson, November 2017, Score: 17.5

    2016 was small so all Cortons blended, 50% new oak. Barrel sample. Very dark with black core. Intense and pure dark dark fruit with an overlay of vanilla sweetness more than spice. Deep and full in the mouth, spreading in generous fruit. The tannins remarkably smooth and supple already. With juicy long finish. Drink 2024-2036 (JH)

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

Corton

The Grands Crus of Corton, a red made from Pinot Noir, and Corton Charlemagne, a white made from Chardonnay are shared between Aloxe-Corton, Ladoix Serrigny and Pernand Vergelesses. The vines for both are planted on the hillsides underneath the plateau of Corton's woodland forest. The majorityof Pinot Noir is planted in the southern and eastern sector where the soil is naturally rich with red iron clay giving additional body and power. Overall, the wines from these areas tend to be fruit forward and fleshy with a balance of round edges and fine concentration.
