Château Bellerive - Quarts de Chaume Grand Cru 2020 (liquoreux 50 cl)
Already superb on the nose, the 2020 vintage is already making our mouths water! Already promising, this bottle concentrates aromatic complexity, richness, and power, while retaining freshness. We highlight a palate focused on citrus and lemon flavors, with a surprising balance of sugar and acidity. A superb vintage, already delicious on the fruit and which will evolve perfectly over the years!

Winery rated 2 stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
A wine enthusiast, Alain Château is a passionate lover of terroirs. Since 2005, he has built up an impressive portfolio of vineyards in Bordeaux and the Loire Valley, where he owns three properties: Château de Varennes (7 hectares in Savennières), Château de la Guimonière (19 hectares in Coteaux-du-Layon Chaume, Anjou and Cabernet d'Anjou, including 16 hectares of Chenin) and Château Bellerive, located in the heart of the Quarts-de-Chaume appellation on the left bank of the Loire. The sweet wines combine power, elegance, and freshness and hold their own in their respective appellations. We did not taste the reds.

5-star rated estate (Outstanding production)
About the estate:
Alain Château, an industrialist with a passion for wine, took over this historic vineyard in the Quarts-de-Chaume region in 2004. He enlisted the help of Denis Dubourdieu, a renowned Bordeaux oenologist who also owns a classified growth in Sauternes, as his advisor. With its dazzling golden color, this cuvée combines the sweetness of quince and honey with aromas of candied fruit. Soft, fresh and rich, it leaves a very pleasant, warm impression on the palate. Don't wait to discover it.
