Who makes it
Parcel by parcel is the working principle at Domaine Belleville. Founded in Rully at the beginning of the 20th century, the domaine farms 22 hectares across the Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune and Côte Chalonnaise, with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay represented in its estate wines.
The portfolio keeps separate vineyards visible in the range. Rully Premier Cru parcels sit alongside wines from Gevrey-Chambertin and other Burgundy appellations, allowing each bottle to retain its village and parcel name.
Where it grows
The vineyards extend from Gevrey-Chambertin and Chambolle-Musigny in the Côte de Nuits, through Puligny-Montrachet and Santenay in the Côte de Beaune, to Rully and Mercurey in the Côte Chalonnaise. The geographic spread places Pinot Noir and Chardonnay across distinct Burgundy appellations.
Rully includes Premier Cru climats such as Rabourcé, Les Cloux, Chapitre, La Fosse and La Pucelle. Premier Cru is a classified vineyard level within a village appellation, so the named parcel remains part of the wine's label and range position.
What they make
The named estate wines include a red from Gevrey-Chambertin and a white from Rully. Domaine Belleville Gevrey-Chambertin Creux Brouillard 2022 is Pinot Noir from 80 year old vines in southeast facing clay limestone soil. Its deep ruby robe is limpid and brilliant.
Domaine Belleville Rully Premier Cru Rabourcé 2022 is Chardonnay from south facing stony clay limestone. It has a pale gold colour with green tints, white fruit and mineral notes, followed by a rich, rounded palate with precise acidity, spice, toasted bread and a long, tasty finish.
