Château Bellevue 2023 – Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

A lovely, elegant, fresh, beautifully racy, precise nose, which offers depth and finesse, a lovely fine grain, racy/precise, airy, with a touch of graphite and complexity. It expresses notes of fresh wild blackberry, graphite and more slightly juicy/fresh blue berries, associated with touches of fresh blond tobacco and a discreet hint of sweet spices, a subtle hint of graphite and camphor. The palate is beautifully fresh, mineral, racy, and offers accuracy and tension, good definition, a certain delicacy. It expresses notes of juicy/pulpy blackberry, fresh blackcurrant and more slightly – cornflower associated with touches of fresh raspberry as well as fine hints of lily, tonka bean, almond and fine hints of toast, with an imperceptible hint of fresh flowers/sap in the background. The tannins are soft and delicious. Softness, flavor. Lovely freshness and minerality. Suppleness, a fine spherical side.
