Domaine de Bellene
Domaine de Bellene offers an interesting Burgundian Pinot Noir "Vieilles Vignes," that is, made from grapes harvested from old vineyards. In these cases, production is very limited, even more so than it normally is in a region aimed at absolute quality like Burgundy. The quality of the grapes in compensation is really very high and the result, this Maison Dieu, is undoubtedly an excellent starting point for those who want to experience the quality of the best French reds. Slow fermentation at high temperature, the must/wine is tasted daily to check the progress of yeast work. At the end of processing, and after racking, the wine rests for more than a year on its lees and 6 months in French oak barrels. Intense ruby red, the nose reveals hints of berries, cherry and strawberry, with distinct floral hints of mulberry and violet and hints of white pepper. Delicate notes of tobacco and porcini mushrooms can then be detected on the finish. In the mouth, however, it reveals a surprisingly pleasant and multifaceted structure, as well as excellent and complex roundness. A wine of beautiful personality, it proves particularly versatile at the table. Excellent with salads, chicken and beef. With a bit of imagination and the pleasure of unusual challenges, this red Burgundy can also be offered with fish.
The area of origin of this winery certainly needs no introduction. We are in the heart of one of the most beloved territories for all wine lovers in the world, Burgundy. And in particular we are in the Beaune area. The estate, or rather the Domaine, of Bellene is based within buildings steeped in history that date as far back as the 16th century. Nicolas Potel's purchase of the estate dating to 2005 was followed by a long process of adapting the winery to be able to meet HQE (High Environmental Quality) in order to be consistent with the winery's philosophy in processing wines. "We operate," the company's website reads, "while minimizing environmental impact. The estate vineyards are located between Santenay, Saint Romain, Volney, Beaune, Nuits Saint Georges and Vosne Romanée and are all between 50 and 110 years old. In the countryside and in the winery, work is done according to organic methods, without the use of chemistry, or sugaring and acidification, with full respect for the invaluable heritage of old vines, capable of producing a few clusters of the highest quality.
