Overview
Terrain, climate, grape varieties, vinification – these natural and human factors combine to produce the true originality of CHATEAU BELLEVUE LA FORÊT. The 112ha (270 acre) vineyard is the largest single privately owned wine estate in the emerging Southwest of France. The wines are regularly awarded medals in competitions worldwide and have gained a wide array of loyal consumers. The wines are sold in wine shops and restaurants throughout France and are exported to more than twenty countries.
A deep ruby colour with hints of violet. Fresh bouquet with intense aromas of red fruit and blackcurrants. Complex with a note of liquorice, smoky and a touch of green pepper. Fresh and unctuous initially, then tasting fruity and spicy. Good length, fine flavoured for a wine that’s ready for drinking now.
