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. Grand Cru Saint-Emilion from 2018 that Jeb Dunnuck says will “keep for two decades or more”.
In 2006 Château Bellefont-Belcier was classified as Grand Cru Classé, 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 wine 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.
