Note di degustazione
This is a little closed on the nose today though some depth and class evident. Bright fruit on the palate, more with time. Restrained again in the mouth though the class is again evident. This will need time but lots of potential.

(this wine represents four different suppliers and four lieux-dits): Saturated deep red. Aromas of red berries, coffee, tobacco, smoky herbs and crushed rock. Dense, sappy and vinous, offering terrific lift and perfume to its red fruit, herb and minerals flavors. Distinctly high-toned wine with a lot of personality. Potel told me that this wine has volatile acidity of 0.65; normally his wines are in the 0.50-0.55 range. (The Grands-Echezeaux, though plush and sweet, was very reduced and a bit disjointed in November, so I will wait to taste the bottled wine next year.)
Informazioni sul produttore
Nicolas Potel is one of Burgundy’s most talented and connected winemakers. He created Maison Roche de Bellene, the négoce arm of Domaine de Bellene, in 2008, using his extensive network in the region to source top-quality fruit for an "haute couture" négociant operation.
