Bordeaux Château Belair Monange Premier Grand Cru Classé 2016

Château Bélair-Monange is one of the oldest and most prestigious properties in Saint-Émilion, with origins dating back to the 18th century. Situated on a limestone and clay plateau of extraordinary potential, the estate belongs to the Moueix family, custodians of some of Bordeaux's greatest wines. The production philosophy focuses on enhancing the terroir, with wines that combine power, elegance, and longevity.

The 2016 vintage delivered exceptional balance and complexity. In the glass, the wine presents a deep and brilliant ruby color. On the nose, it offers an intense and refined bouquet, with notes of ripe plum, black cherry, and blackberry, enriched by hints of violet, graphite, cocoa, and sweet spices.

On the palate, it is ample and structured, with velvety and powerful tannins that blend into a harmonious and persistent sip. The mineral freshness, typical of the limestone soil, provides verve and finesse, while the finish is long and layered, with dark fruit and spice notes that enhance its elegance.

A Premier Grand Cru Classé that embodies the grandeur of Saint-Émilion and will evolve magnificently over the years, ideal paired with important roasts, red meats, game, and aged cheeses.
