Château Bellevue Rougier – Bordeaux Rouge
Les crémants de Bordeaux sont des vins "mousseux" blanc ou rosé. Issus de la région de l'Entre-Deux-Mers, les spécificités de ces vins sont fortement liées à leur terroir ainsi qu'à l'influence climatique océanique et tempérée de la région. Situés entre la Garonne et la Dordogne, les vignobles de crémant bénéficient d'un taux élevé d'humidité essentiel à leur élaboration, selon la méthode champenoise.
Château Bellevue Rougier is situated in Rimons, a small village of the Entre-Deux-Mers, not far from the charming fortified town of Castelmoron d'Albret. This is the smallest village in France, though paradoxically it is located in the Gironde, the country's largest département. The total surface area is only 3. 54 hectares, similar to that of place Charles-de-Gaulle in Paris.

winemaking and ageing
Cold soaking before fermentation (4 to 15°C for several days) for the ripest grapes, to obtain more intense fruity notes. Thermovinification of part of the harvest to obtain a must rich in colour and fruity aromas. Alcoholic fermentation (controlled temperature, selected yeasts) with 2 to 3 weeks on skins to provide a round and supple wine. Ageing in stainless-steel and concrete tanks.
