Roche de Bellene Rully Villages

The viticultural capital of Burgundy, Beaune was the headquarters to the Duchy in the 13th century and is now home to many winemakers and négociants. The appellation of Beaune includes both reds and white wines, though the quantity of red is significantly greater. The soils are predominantly sandier than either those to the north in Aloxe Corton or those to the south in Volnay or Pommard, producing wines that are supple and early drinking in nature. Similar to other surrounding Côte de Beaune appellations, there are no grand crus, but it does offer 42 premier cru sites, some of which are exceptional.

Roche de Bellene

Son of the family who used to own the illustrious Domaine de la Pousse d’Or, Nicolas Potel set up his négociant label Maison Roche de Bellene in 2008. A Bourguignon through and through, Nicolas’ unrivalled local network of thoroughly reliable grower-suppliers allows him to source fruit from the most sought-after parcels in the Côte. The emphasis remains to this day on well-sited venerable vines and viticulture and the Maison Roche de Bellene label is the superlative source of attractive, well-priced Burgundy wines. The city of Beaune, called « Bellene » until the middle Age, is renowned for its Burgundy wines. Nicolas POTEL personally chose this brand name in reference to this city, historically linked with wine and famous for its diversity of terroirs.

This elegant white Burgundy exudes fresh aromas of green apple, pear, and citrus blossom, complemented by subtle notes of hazelnut and a delicate minerality. The palate is crisp and lively, with a perfect balance of acidity and a creamy texture that leads to a refreshing finish of lemon zest and a hint of white flowers.

Serve at 10–12°C in a classic white wine glass to fully appreciate its finesse. It’s a brilliant match for seared scallops, roast chicken, or a vibrant asparagus risotto.
