Domaine de Bellene Vieilles Vignes Cote de Nuits-Villages 2023 in Brampton, ON

From a 1.6ha vineyard with vine age averaging 74 years, this is a very classy, exacting Cotes de Nuits Villages. Has the deeper colour of Nuits with lovely nose of blackcurrant/raspberry, violet, nutmeg and distant wood smoke. It is medium weight, quite firm and mineral but not at all austere. The length is excellent. Very classy. Best over the next decade. Tasted March 2025 Score - 93.
