GRAPES VARITETIES: Chardonnay
TASTING NOTES: The fruit persists and it is the years of melting lees that act as the buoy for that fruit to shine like the gem it obviously was, and is. Citrus yes but not definable as such and acidity also melted and dripping with paraffin in advance of honey.
FOOD PAIRINGS: White Meat & Fish in Butter/Creamy Sauce | Pasta | Tonkotsu Ramen | Tom Kha Gai
BRAND NAME: Roche de Bellene (Maison)
Maison Roche de Bellene is the négociant (making wine with fruit from other growers) of Nicolas Potel, the well-known and highly regarded winemaker in Burgundy. Founded in 2009, the emphasis at Roche de Bellene is on individual terroirs from vieilles vignes (old vines — 40 years or older) that are farmed responsibly. Nicolas Potel has been interested in wines from old vintages for a long time, that is the reason why he decided to develop a new range of wines: the Bellenum Collection. Nicolas POTEL selected the best crus and cuvées among more than 2 500 tasted wines. This unique collection provides wine enthusiasts with the best wines and the most famous Burgundy appellations.
