Critic Scores, Reviews & Descriptions

98-99 JS / 96 WI / 95 - 97 VM / 93 DE
 
This is a terrific wine that has everything, from seamless texture to great depth of fruit. Full-bodied, yet agile and energetic. Pure merlot. One of the best I have had from here. - James Suckling
 
Bellevue Mondotte 2020 is 100% Merlot this year and has a deep garnet-purple color. It comes barreling out of the glass with rambunctious notes of preserved plums, blueberry pie, and black cherries, leading to suggestions of candied violets, tapenade, and aniseed, plus a touch of iron ore. The medium to full-bodied palate is completely coated with dark, decadent fruits, supported by velvety tannins and lovely freshness, finishing long with a spicy kick. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Independent
 
The 2020 Bellevue Mondotte is a dark, brooding Saint-Émilion, from just two hectares of vineyards. Graphite, gravel, scorched earth, inky dark fruit, chocolate and cloves stain the palate. Deep and explosive, with tremendous energy, the Bellevue Mondotte is magnificent and also one of the most distinctive wines in the appellation. In 2020, it’s 100% Merlot, as the small parcels of Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon that once were used here have been budded over to Merlot. What a wine! - Antonio Galloni, Vinous
 
This is dominated by crème de cassis, giving a flash of heat, which threatens to overpower. The tannins build up fairly swiftly, but alongside is a full on cascade of dark berry fruits. This is intense and architectural - it closes down firmly on the finish, but will open back up over the next decade. 3.54pH. A yield of 18hl/ha. 2ha vineyard, right up on the clay-limestone plateau, malolactic fermentation in large vats, 90% new oak. - Jane Anson, Decanter
