CHÂTEAU BELLEFONT-BELCIER SAINT-EMILION GRAND CRU 2019
Why do we love this wine?
Fine wine lovers, it’s time to sit up and pay attention. What we have here is nothing less than superb, stunning and yes, spectacular.
In 2006 Chateau Bellefont-Belcier was classified as Grand Cru Classe, after over a century in operation. They grow superb merlot and cabernets on south-facing slopes of limestone-clay, which are handpicked in small parcels and handled in the winery with the utmost attention to detail. The wines see 30% new oak, with the remainder being raised in larger vats and barriques of 1-2 years. This oak adds to the already powerful and structured wine that certainly has a long life ahead of it. Jeb Dunnuck’s 97-point review below gives you an idea of what to expect from the wine.

Tasting notes:
Allspice, Cedar, Plum, Full-Bodied, Bright, Bold
Awards:
97pts Jeb Dunnuck, 96pts James Suckling, 4.3 Vivino (2019 Vintage), 95pts Decanter
"An estate that deserves more recognition in the market today, the 2019 Chateau Bellefont-Belcier comes from a fabulous terroir not far from Larcis Ducasse and Chateau Pavie. Gorgeous cassis and black raspberry fruits give way to a full-bodied, incredibly elegant 2019 with loads of floral notes, the classic minerality of this terroir, ripe tannins, and blockbuster of a finish. The elegance and purity of this wine paired with its richness and depth are something." – 97 Points, Jeb Dunnuck
"This is very complex with super fine, silky tannins that just take off. Full bodied with berry, chocolate and walnut flavors. Mushrooms and cedar, too." - James Suckling
Vintage: 2019 | Closure: Cork | Region: Bordeaux | Blend info: 70% merlot, 25% cab franc, 5% cab sav |Preservatives: Sulphites
