Château Bélair-Monange was created in 2012 after the merge of Châteaux Bélair and Magdelaine. The estate is owned and operated by the influential Moueix family, whose portfolio includes vineyards in Pomerol, Saint-Émilion and Napa Valley. This 2019 vintage is a blend of 96% Merlot and 4% Cabernet Franc, and it’s dominated by notes of violets, raspberries and preserved cherries. A full-bodied and impactful wine that will definitely blossom in five years’ time.
The 2019 Bélair-Monange has a more tertiary nose, backward and broody, almost Left Bank in style. This demands much more coaxing from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with a slightly chocolaty opening. The oak a little too thick maybe? Plenty of fruit behind it, quite plush on the finish, but missing the intellect that previous bottles have displayed. Maybe entering an awkward adolescence? Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting. - Neil Martin - The 2019 Bélair-Monange has a more tertiary nose, backward and broody, almost Left Bank in style.
