Situated amongst the vineyards of Premières Côtes de Blaye, a sub-region of Bordeaux, the family owned Chateau la Rose Bellevue has been producing wine for four generations. The vineyard benefits from the unique climatic conditions found in Nord-Gironde, close to the Gironde Estuary in the district of Saint-Palais. Winemaker Jérôme Eymas gained valuable experience and cut his winemaking teeth while working for several Australian wineries. He extended his knowledge in making Champagne for Pierre Bertrand in Cumières, in making Condrieu and St. Joseph with Stéphane Montez from Domaine du Monteillet in Chavanay and in making Côte Rotie with Stéphane Ogier from Domaine Michel et Stéphane Ogier in Ampuis. He also made wine Chile and Argentina in 2002. Jérôme’s reds are stylish and sleek, with more sweet, ripe fruit than you’d expect from a Bordeaux.  The Prestige Rouge is oak aged while the Tradition Rouge is 100% stainless steel.
