Château Bellevue: A Right Bank Grand Cru Classé Masterpiece

As a Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé, Château Bellevue represents the very best of Bordeaux's Right Bank. Crafted from 100% Merlot grown on the historic clay-limestone slopes, this wine is renowned for its signature elegance and profound aging capability. Its proximity to Premier Grand Cru Classé estates ensures a quality and pedigree that is truly world-class. A magnificent addition to any serious cellar.

Tasting Notes (100% Merlot Profile)

• **Colour:** Deep, dark ruby to garnet, indicative of its concentrated structure.
• **Nose:** Richly aromatic, displaying a complex bouquet of ripe red and black fruits-think blackcurrant, damson plum, and cherry-with tertiary notes of cigar box, woodland floor, and a subtle, high-quality oak spice.
• **Palate:** Smooth and luxurious on the attack. The mouthfeel is defined by its velvety, fine-grained tannins. It possesses a powerful core of fruit balanced by a refreshing minerality. The finish is exceptionally long and refined, echoing the limestone terroir.

Pairing & Service

This wine is a classic partner for traditional British luxury fare. Serve at 16-18°C (60-64°F) and give it plenty of time to breathe-a long decant is highly recommended for younger bottles to allow the complex aromas to fully unfurl.
