Nicolas Potel Maison Roche de Bellene Savigny-les-Beaune Vieilles Vignes, Cote de Beaune, France 2020 Domaine Vincent Dampt Based on the 2022 vintageThis cuve is crafted from a blend of three distinct vineyard plots, revealing ripe aromas of dark cherry and pomegranate interwoven with warm earthy undertones.
