Firm tannins, freshness and poised. Mineral finish.
Winemaker and vineyard : Vincent Mulliez acquired Château Belle-Vue in 2004. This estate, located in the Sud-Médoc region, comes from an exceptional terroir. The gravelly soil on which the 30-year-old vines grow, combined with traditional growing techniques, produce an exceptional wine.
Tasting : The 2015 Belle-Vue, located next to Giscours in northern Macau, is a blend of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 15% Petit Verdot matured in 40% new oak. There was some reduction to contend with on the nose, since they use less SO2 during the élevage; the palate, however, shows good potential with firm tannin, fresh and nicely poised with a foursquare, but fine minerally finish. robertparker.com (28.04.2016)
Service : Serve it at a room temperature of 18°C with red meats, ham or roast; always good with fine cheese!
