Domaine de Bellene Les Grands Poisots Volnay 2023

Product Details

One the smaller lieu-dits from which Nicolas Potel draws fruit, a small 0.415 hectare plot planted in 1985 up against the village and vineyards of Pommard. Nearing forty years of age at this stage and so essentially old vines to say that experience and concentration are by now a given. The fantasy of fragrance is the initial grace of this fine and focused pinot noir, a veritable roses and Bougainvillea of perfume that leads towards more impression abroad the palate. There is a moment of sanguine, clay-earthy fromage and the complexity perceived feels like a foraged find, a Russula Rosea if you will, as opposed to the inedible Sanguinaria. Good bones complete the picture for this right proper Volnay. Drink 2025-2027. Tasted March 2025.
