Merchant's description

The 2020 Château Bélair-Monange is predominantly composed of Merlot, complemented by just a touch of Cabernet Franc. The grapes were harvested from September 15th to 23rd, ensuring optimal ripeness. It captivates with intense aromas of wet earth, limestone cellars, and dark fruits like currants and blackberries. Gradually, delicate floral notes emerge, accompanied by hints of black truffles, liquorice, and gravel. On the palate, it impresses with a full-bodied structure and well-integrated tannins that seamlessly blend into the wine.
