Bielle Goélette Élevé sous voile 2011
What surprises people here is how rounded and easygoing this Bielle is for an agricole at full proof. Vanilla, apricot and fresh sugarcane up front, with young oak, a little camphor and a salty, licorice edge on the way out. The alcohol sits well integrated, so the 54.1% rarely bites. Several tasters call it elegant yet "accessible," and a few even mistook it for a Martinique rum.
- Well-integrated alcohol
- Apricot and vanilla
- Balanced, rounded

How does Bielle Goélette Élevé sous voile 2011 taste?
Aggregated from 40 community reviews.
Rounded, woody-fruity agricole at full proof Members consistently land around the high 8s: balanced, woody and fruity with apricot, vanilla and a faintly saline finish. A few feel it's very fine but stops just short of thrilling.

Review by Émile Shevek
The nose is rich, rounded with hints of both spice and fruit, floral and vanilla. On the palate it is lively, toasty, with red fruits and floral On the lingering finish, slightly woody, but also aromatic, reminding me of violets. Really good despite being relatively young
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
I like Bielle and this one is up there with the best of them. The nose is well balanced and woody with fruit and varnish from the start closely followed by nuts, vanilla and some sugarcane. The palate round and balanced fruits and spices first then nutty oak and a hint of honey. A nice palate and a must for Bielle fans. The finish is medium long to long with oak, raisin and a bit of vanilla. Price to quality is very good.
Review by Czech Rum porter
Very interesting fruit profile, tones of apricots and chocolate. Beautifully pleasant woodiness - round, alcohol well integrated. Delicacy
Review by Oliver
Exzellenter Agricole von Bielle. Zugänglich und trotzdem vielschichtig. Macht richtig Spaß!
Review by Martin Spooner
Wow ... Etwas sehr speziell anderes. Strahlt eine Eleganz aus ... Zugänglich und überhaupt nicht langweilig.
Review by zabo
Very good drop. The first nose wasn't bad. But if you give it a little time, it develops and gets even better. Overall, it is very balanced and round with very well integrated alcohol. Makes you want more. Which makes it a mild contemporary with a desire for more
Review by Arnaud Faverjon
Pas les marqueurs typiques de Bielle, j’ai cru à un Martiniquais à l’aveugle, plus patiné et boisé, parquet ciré, boîte à cigare, très belle complexité et profondeur!
Review by Joachim Guger
A very fresh nose. Camphor, glue, polish, then with a little breathing it becomes less. Fresh fruit (citrus, apricot and especially peach can be detected). Some oak. Crisp and complex. A few drops of water bring out cookie dough and macaroons.In the mouth then very crisp, keeps changing until swallowed.The finish is very nice and long.A very good complex Bielle, the typical fruitiness and the typical licorice are withdrawn. In return there is a pronounced minerality and freshness.

Trame bielle avec bcp de fraîcheur... au top
Review by Rene Pfeiffer
An der Nase erst mal Lösungsmittel dann fruchtig, süßlich nach Vanille und Aprikosen, etwas Zuckerrohr. Am Gaumen ausgewogen zwischen Früchte und Süße von Honig. Der Abgang ist mittellang. Es verbleiben Honig, Würzigkeit und Eiche.
Review by mto75
An der Nase sehr frisch mit Zitrusfrüchten (Erinnerungen an Ahoi Brause Zitrone kommen auf) und leichter Schärfe, bisschen Richtung Ingwer, dazu Gewürze, Fruchtbonbon und junges Holz. Am Gaumen Muskatnuss, Milchkaffee und Holz.
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Not quite as impressive as the RX6777 tasted at the same time, a little sharper and with a perceived (!) sherry finish, but also a great choice. Thank you, Leo, for the blind sample for the RumX Christmas Secret Santa on 21.12.2023!
Review by Leo Krüper
Schöner Agricole auf Trinkstärke. Sehr ausgewogenes Profil mit schönem tropischen Faßeinfluss. Hintenraus eine interessante Lakritz oder Anis note. Aber keinesfalls unangenehm. Interessanter Exot.
Review by Jacques etdom
Un bon agricole, très bien réalisé. Pour moi, il manque un petit quelque chose qui pourrait le faire passer dans la catégorie supérieure, un peu comme un neisson, très fin mais sans folie. Le prix est cependant bien trop élevé pour ce type de rhum, d ou un retrait de 0.5 point.
Review by Richard Krupa
For an agricole rum, it's surprisingly good for me, smooth
