This red “Rose de Bellet” cuvée, named in honor of the Baron de Bellet’s mother, is produced only in exceptional vintages. This was the case in 2001 and 2003. Delicate and elegant, this wine is made primarily from two local grape varieties, Braquet and Folle Noire, 100% destemmed and aged for 18 months in barrels. A rare bottle from the dazzling 2007 vintage—a must-try!

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2020 guide): 2*Stars (A solid, recommendable production, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
Located on the Séoules hill, in the hills above Nice at an elevation of nearly 300 meters, the terraced vineyard benefits from sea mist that tempers the summer heat. After producing 47 vintages and establishing the renown and reputation of the Bellet appellation, Ghislain de Charnacé sold his 12-hectare vineyard in 2014 to the real estate management company La Française REM (which owns other vineyards). Considerable resources have been devoted to restructuring the vineyards, under the leadership—since the summer of 2018—of Jean de Laître, a talented master winemaker who is also active in the Bordeaux region. A highly functional winery at the foot of the old chapel now allows for winemaking that is closely attuned to the terroir. A new style is emerging, with the range reorganized into three tiers (entry-level wines, terroir wines, and the exceptional “agnès” cuvées), promising a bright future for this historic estate. The latest vintages reflect this positive shift.
