Bellevue Mondotte 2012

A small estate of the Perse family (of Chateau Pavie) with very limited production per year, they consistently make some of the highest quality wines in the St-Emilion region. A wine with intense concentration yet still perfectly balanced with plenty of ripe black fruits and notes of cedar. It is full bodied with supple tannins, mouth filling but not too heavy. Be sure to have this wine in your collection as there aren't many around. 

Grapes - 90% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc

Food Pairing - perfect with Chinese lamb stew or with strong cheese.
