Bellevue Mondotte 2010 (750ML)
This greatly successful 2010 vintage displays a deep black color, plenty of body and a round texture. Oak and spice aromas perfectly merge with black fruit character for a perfectly knit experience.

Château Bellevue-Mondotte is a tiny estate on the Pavie Plateau next to Château Pavie and Château Pavie-Decesse. It is a little jewel that is just 6 acres in size, situated on excellent terroir at the summit of Saint-Emilion's famous limestone plateau.
