Bellevue
Chateau Bellevue is known to have exceptional terroir. Its diverse soil is rich in clay and magnesium higher up the hill, whilst lower down it contains more chalk. This produces wine with complexity and as much character as the estate itself, which co-exists with ancient ruins from Roman vintners.

I've always enjoyed this wine (I recently finished a case of the 2003, which needs to be drunk up), and the 2019 Château Bellevue showed beautifully. Dense purple-hued with lots of cassis, gravelly earth, violets, and spicy oak, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a soft, opulent mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It's a beautiful wine in the making and well worth a case purchase.د.إ2,000.00
