The domain

CHÂTEAU DE BELLET

The property of the Château de Bellet is located at altitude on the hills of Nice, facing the Valley of Var and the foothills of the Alps. A must-have reference for Bellet wine for decades!

CHATEAU DE BELLET AND ITS EXCEPTIONAL HISTORY AND TERROIR

Chateau de Bellet was created in the 18th century by the Barons de Bellet, who began planting vines on a unique soil of its kind: the pudingue. It is a mixture of sand, pebbles and clay, which, combined with the exhibition favourable to viticulture, brings freshness and elegance to Bellet’s wine. It was in 1941 that the appellation Bellet was born, it was the consecration for the wines of the Château de Bellet that were served at the Summits of Versailles and then Nice in the 80s and 2000s. Later, the estate and its iconic Chapelle were sold and many works were carried out until 2015 to build a semi-buryed winery necessary for the ageing of Bellet’s great wines.

CHÂTEAU DE BELLET, INDIGENOUS CEPAGES FOR IDENTITY WINES

Château de Bellet covers 13 hectares cultivated in organic farming since 2013. The philosophy of the Barons de Bellet is as follows: “At Chateau de Bellet, we consider that the process of vinification, through the transformation of grapes into wine, must sublimate the raw material.” Indeed, the Barons de Bellet are among the few families to have replanted forgotten grape varieties typical of their terroir such as Vermentino, also called Rolle in Provence for white wines, as well as Braquet and Folle Noire intended to produce the wine of Bellet red and rosé.

CHÂTEAU DE BELLET, EMBLEM OF BELLET WINE
