Domaine de Bellene Les Charmes Dessus Santenay 2024

Product Details

Not quite 20 year-old chardonnay vines at this stage from just a shade under 0.4 hectares below Les Charmes in Santenay. Yet another white Bourgogne stunner from Nicolas Potel that rings the bell of excellence for vintage and place. The refrain is sung on repeat because it does not seem to matter which plot, big or small - they all succeed out of the most justly cultured vintage. There is a chewy character to this Santenay and without the same bite and structural backbone of Saint-Romain, Savigny-Les-Beaune and Les Monts De Boncourt. Still the pleasure is all ours. Drink 2024-2027. Tasted August 2024. Score - 91. (Michael Godel, winealign.com)
