Belleville

Bordeaux Rosé

Since 1997, the Vignobles Gonfrier have developed their grape-buying activity, purchasing grapes from some forty partner winegrowers, in accordance with our production specifications and overseen by our technical staff. The resulting wines are vinified and aged by our own enologists at our Chais de Rions site. ‘Belleville’ is part of France's cultural heritage, a cosmopolitan neighborhood nestled on a hillside with strong roots in the heart of the French capital.
Its winegrowing history that inspired us dates to the Carolingian era, when monks cultivated several hectares of vines there.

This emblematic range from the Gonfrier family is an invitation to conviviality and multiple pairings, revealing the fresh, fruity aromatic potential found in the great blends of Bordeaux wines.
