Note di degustazione
The 2009 Bellevue is conspicuously deeper in colour than its peers with less ageing on the rim. The bouquet is quite generous with scents of Indian ink and blue fruit infusing the intense red fruit aromas, hints of sandalwood and sage emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple, quite saturated tannin, and the acidity well judged. A very sweet, almost Châteauneuf-like finish detracts from typicity. This is a thoroughly enjoyable Bordeaux, but not intellectual. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners’ 2009 Bordeaux tasting.

Tasted blind. Blackish crimson. Light treacle and tea leaves on the nose. At the moment the fruit and the tannin are decidedly unmarried. Chewy end. Hint of liquorice. One of the more youthful wines in this flight. It’s certainly ambitious. But it needs time. (JR)
Sweet and perfumed. Strong blackcurrant aromas. Awkward tough texture. Some raisining on the vine? (JR)
Much paler than the 2010. Light and easy and without the real richness of most 2009s. Even a little rhubarb. Dry finish. None of the lushness of this vintage. (JR)
