Les Vergelesses is the most admired Premier Cru in Savigny-lès-Beaune, a north-facing hillside parcel with exceptional limestone and chalk soils that produce wines of remarkable finesse and aromatic purity for the appellation. Savigny sits in the valley between Pernand-Vergelesses and Beaune, and Les Vergelesses occupies the coolest, most elevated position of all, which in the warm 2022 vintage proved to be a considerable asset, preserving freshness and lift in a year when some lower-lying parcels leaned toward overripeness. Potel’s négociant sourcing from organically farmed old vines brings the full character of the site to the surface: vivid red cherry, raspberry, dried rose, and a flintier, chalk-driven minerality that runs through the palate and lingers on the finish. Classic, pure, and beautifully priced for the quality inside. These are limited. Grab them while you can.

About The Producer

Maison Roche de Bellene was founded in 2005 by Nicolas Potel, a renowned Burgundian winemaker with deep family roots in the region. After establishing his reputation through Domaine de Rochegrès and his own négociant business, Potel launched Roche de Bellene as a high-quality, terroir-driven négociant house. Focused on sourcing fruit from old-vine, sustainably farmed vineyards across Burgundy, the maison offers a diverse range of wines, from regional Bourgogne to prestigious Grand Cru bottlings. The philosophy is centered on minimal intervention winemaking, allowing each terroir’s expression to shine through with purity and elegance. Today, Maison Roche de Bellene continues to be a respected name in Burgundy, known for its meticulous sourcing, consistent quality, and commitment to sustainable viticulture, offering both accessible and collectible wines that reflect the essence of the region.
