About this wine

Château Belle-Vue Haut-Médoc is a dry, full-bodied Bordeaux, combining dark berry, blackcurrant and plum fruit with cedar, spice and often a subtle graphite note. Petit Verdot contributes deep colour, violet tones and firm structure, while the final blend may vary by vintage. Bright acidity and ripe tannins give the wine tension and a classical Médoc character.

About Château Belle-Vue

Château Belle-Vue is located in the Haut-Médoc on Bordeaux’s Left Bank. The estate produces red wines in a traditional Médoc idiom, generally drawing on Cabernet varieties, Merlot and Petit Verdot. The region’s gravelly soils are especially well suited to structured reds with ageing potential.

Wine country France France brings together an extraordinary range of terroirs, appellations and classic wine styles, from Champagne and Burgundy to Bordeaux and the Rhône. Read more
