Petit Verdot by Belle-Vue 2016

The wine

The domain's flagship grape variety, this Petit Verdot has an energetic and imposing register. It offers up a beautiful tannic structure coated with mouth-watering notes of red fruit such as cherry. It can be paired beautifully with equally impressive dishes such as fleshy and tasty meat.

About the Producer Château Belle-Vue

Château Belle-Vue has been known for its wines since the end of the 19th century, which, until 1995 were incorporated into Château Gironville's production. This was due to the owner at that time, Rémy Fouin, who renovated the winery and re-established Belle-Vue as a completely separate wine. Vincent Mulliez became the owner in 2004, and has continued with the same enthusiasm as his predecessor, who remains an adviser. Unfortunately Vincent Mulliez died suddenly in 2010, but his family and their team have successfully continued the work that he began. Very attached to traditional methods, this ambitious team has nonetheless not hesitated to adopt the latest technology.
