The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Roche de Bellene is an elite winery. Its founder, Nicolas Potel, crafts some of the most sensual wines in Burgundy. Very old vines, organic farming, and subtle aging are all finely-tuned parameters that shape wines of exceptional realism and precision, with genuine and abundant flavors of fruit.
Wine With its distinct fruit and style, the 2018 red Volnay Vieilles Vignes offers a magnificent taste, marked by precise aromatic notes. Delicate raspberry aromas and judiciously integrated oak characterize this elegant wine with precise and refined tannins. It's recommended to aerate before serving and pair with a veal chop, for instance. Rated 94/100 by the Committee.
