PRODUCER
Domaine Bellevue is a family-owned estate growing vines and making wines for four generations. The vines are approximately twenty-five years old. Situated on the slopes of the right shore of the Cher Valley, the vineyard is settled on a light siliceous stony ground and clayey-limestone subsoil. Patrick Vauvy took over the family Domaine in 1991 after studying viticulture and oenology at agricultural college.
TASTING NOTES
This crisp, dry Sauvignon has lovely aromatics with an intense grassy-lemon nose, a supple palate and delicate flavours of gooseberry with subtle touches of green apple, kiwi, passion fruit and pineapple to delight the palate and engage the senses. It is well-balanced with a long, pleasing finish.
