Quarts de Chaume

Château Bellerive Quarts de Chaume is a prestigious dessert wine from the Quarts de Chaume AOC in the Loire Valley, France. This appellation is renowned for producing some of the world's finest sweet wines, exclusively from Chenin Blanc grapes. The wine is characterized by a rich golden color and an intense, aromatic bouquet with notes of honey, dried apricots, candied citrus, and a touch of botrytis (noble rot), which imparts a distinctive complexity. On the palate, it is lush and opulent, offering layers of ripe stone fruits, honey, and a hint of almond, balanced by a refreshing acidity that prevents it from being overly sweet. The finish is long, luxurious, and lingering. Château Bellerive Quarts de Chaume pairs beautifully with foie gras, blue cheeses, fruit-based desserts, or can be enjoyed on its own as a splendidly indulgent treat. This wine showcases the exceptional quality and aging potential of sweet Chenin Blanc from one of the Loire Valley's most celebrated appellations.
