"A blend of 65% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Franc from the Castillon region of Bordeaux, the 2015 Chateau Bellevue Vieilles Vignes offers a solid bouquet of ripe red and black fruits, dried tobacco, and smoked earth. This carries to a medium to full-bodied 2015 that has a nicely textured, fruit-loaded, ready-to-go style that’s ideal for drinking over the coming 7-8 years."
