Nicolas Potel

Maison Nicolas Potel was set up in 1997, following the sale of Domaine Pousse d'Or, where Nicolas' father had been winemaker since the 1960s. Nicolas has a fantastic reputation and contacts which enables him to obtain parcels which would not normally be available to a young negocient. Cottin Freres, recently bought Potel's business, enabling Nicolas to concentrate on producing the great wines for which he has become known.

Wines from Nicolas Potel

Producer: Nicolas Potel
Wine: Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2000
Appellation: Vougeot Sub-region: Cote de Nuits
Region: Burgundy Country: France
Grape: Pinot Noir
Tasting notes: In January 1998, Nicolas began to purchase fruit and post-fermentation lots of wine from prestigious domaines. His own relationships with growers and the legacy of his father helped open doors to some of the greatest domaines, even those who normally sell little or nothing except under their own label. As early as 2000, Clive Coates MW was writing that Nicolas "was already a super-star".
