Château Bellevue and Château Haut-Ballet (Canon-Fronsac) form a single 12-hectare estate. Owner Olivier Decelle applies the same rigor and precision that have made his famous Mas Amiel in Roussillon such a success. The 2006 vintage boasts a rich, fruity nose, with aromas of blackberry, blackcurrant and black cherry... A fine introduction to the subject!
