Domaine Roger Belland Santenay Commes 1er Cru Rouge 2023

Domaine Roger Belland’s Santenay Commes 1er Cru Rouge 2023 is a beautifully poised Burgundy that brings together the finesse of Pinot Noir with the depth and structure expected from a Premier Cru site. Crafted in one of the southernmost villages of the Côte de Beaune, it reflects both the character of Santenay’s terroir and the domaine’s long-standing commitment to precision and quality.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a vibrant ruby-red color with a youthful, luminous edge. The nose unfolds with aromas of red berries, delicate summer flowers, and a subtle hint of spice, giving it immediate charm and layered complexity. On the palate, the wine is supple yet structured, with soft tannins, balanced freshness, and a rounded core of fruit that carries through to a long, polished finish. While already appealing in its youth, it should also develop nicely over the next several years, gaining more nuance and depth with bottle age.

Production
This Premier Cru comes from the Santenay Commes vineyard in Burgundy, where the combination of limestone-rich soils and a favorable Côte de Beaune climate helps Pinot Noir express both elegance and concentration. Domaine Roger Belland is known for careful vineyard work and a hands-on approach in the cellar, allowing the fruit and site to speak clearly in the finished wine.

Food & Serving
A versatile food wine, it pairs especially well with grilled poultry, duck, roast pork, braised beef, and mushroom-based dishes. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 20–30 minutes if opening young to help the aromas and texture open up beautifully.
