Château Bellegrave is located on the banks of the Gironde, planted on predominantly gravelly soil, cultivated and vinified in the Médoc tradition. A Médoc with astonishing aromatic complexity, with notes of vanilla and toast. A very pretty bottle!

For the time being, it needs at least 2 years of ageing to reveal its full potential.
