Domaine de Bellene Les Perrières Beaune 1er Cru 2023 is an elegant and refined white Burgundy from Beaune in the Côte de Beaune. The wine is made from 100% Chardonnay from the Premier Cru vineyard Les Perrières and offers a beautiful combination of ripe fruit, freshness, and mineral finesse.

Les Perrières is an exciting Premier Cru vineyard where Chardonnay has the opportunity to showcase both depth and precision. The 2023 vintage has produced a harmonious wine with generous fruit, yet still retaining the freshness and vibrancy one seeks in a classic white Burgundy.

In the glass, you’ll find a Chardonnay with both body and elegance. Citrus, ripe apples, and stone fruit meet delicate mineral nuances. The acidity creates balance and keeps the wine fresh throughout the palate.

This is a white Beaune 1er Cru for those who appreciate Chardonnay with character and classic Burgundian finesse. The wine can be enjoyed now but also has the potential to develop greater complexity with further aging.
