Chateau Bellevue St. Emilion Grand Cru - 2005 (750ml) Size:750ml But don’t let that foolThe first bottle of 2005 Bellevue that I tasted had a maderized, oxidized nose that was off putting. This note is from a second bottle. This second bottle showed absolutely no trace of oxidation, but did offer plenty of crushed, chalky minerality, notes of plum, blueberry, black raspberry and cherry fruit, a dense purple color, a full bodied mouthfeel, and fabulous structure, purity and length. It should drink well for at least another 20+ years.
