Type

Appellation
Beaujolais
Variety
Gamay
Terroir de Bellevue comes from a single old vine Gamay parcel in Anse planted by Raphael's grandfather in the 1950s. It's vinified in the semi-carbonic style of the Beaujolais, but the limestone terroir gives it a unique quality. If any wine from the Pierre Dorées could argue for its own cru, this would be it.
