Maison Roche de Bellene Santenay 'La Comme' Premier Cru 2022
Nicolas Potel set up his négociant label Maison Roche de Bellene in 2008 and his unrivalled local network of thoroughly reliable grower-suppliers allows him to source fruit from the most sought-after parcels in the Côte. The emphasis of Maison Roche de Bellene is on well-sited venerable vines and viticulture and providing a source of attractive, well-priced Burgundy wines. Nicolas chose the name ‘Bellene' in honour of the ancient Roman name for Beaune. Santenay is the most southerly village appellation of the Côte d'Or and contains a number of Premier Cru vineyards providing a good source of reliable and good-value red Burgundy. Sourced from vines over 45 years old, the Maison Roche de Bellene Santenay 'La Comme' is a ripe Premier Cru that combines rich fruit, fine structure and incredible length.
