Gevrey Chambertin `Creux Brouillard` Domaine Belleville 2018

A Tribute to Burgundy’s Côte de Nuits

Explore the refined elegance of Gevrey Chambertin Creux Brouillard Domaine Belleville 2018, a Pinot Noir crafted with precision and a deep respect for Burgundy’s exceptional terroir.

Region: The Côte de Nuits

The Côte de Nuits is a storied region in Burgundy, following a narrow strip of red iron-rich soils that stretch south from Dijon to Nuits St Georges, ending before the hill of Corton. Known as the cradle of the most elusive Pinot Noir wines, this northern half of the Côte d'Or evokes a roll call of great vineyard names: Gevrey, Vosne Romanée, Clos de Vougeot, and Musigny. Here, the finest vineyards nestle along southeast-facing limestone slopes, basking in optimal sun exposure, while lower-lying vineyards produce wines of less distinction due to clay-heavy soils.

Producer: Domaine Belleville

Founded in the heart of Rully in the early 20th century, Domaine Belleville is a beacon of Burgundy winemaking excellence. With 28 hectares of vineyards spanning the length of Burgundy, the estate produces wines of distinctive elegance and finesse. Part of the prestigious Dumont family portfolio, alongside Château de Messey (Mâconnais) and Manoir Murisaltien (Côte d'Or), Domaine Belleville exemplifies a commitment to crafting exceptional wines.

Tasting Notes

Crafted from 80-year-old vines and aged for 16 months in oak (35% new), this Pinot Noir boasts a deep ruby hue. The nose reveals layers of blackberry, blueberry, and subtle toasted bread. On the palate, it is richly fruity with integrated oak, offering complexity and a long, elegant finish.

Perfect Serve

Serve at 16–18°C for optimal enjoyment. Pair it with grilled meats, lasagne, Gruyère cheese, or pâté to highlight its sophisticated flavours.
