GRAPES VARITETIES: Chardonnay
TASTING NOTES: Distinctive for the smoky, flinty, direct and taut inflection. That alternative sweetness is still a few years away. The slow evolution and more to come is one of those great impossibilites to make you smile.
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.
