A final blend of 90% Merlot with 10% Cabernet Franc, the deep garnet-purple colored 2017 Belair Monange has a flamboyant nose of potpourri, Indian spices, Sichuan pepper, hoisin and sandalwood over a core of crème de cassis, blackberry pie and blueberry preserves with a waft of dusty earth. The medium to full-bodied palate is rich and seductive with oodles of freshness and layers of floral and spice notions, finishing long.

This St. Emilion Chateau traces aspects of its lineage to the 1300s, yet 2008 heralded great change with a new name and a change in winemaking. Stringent selection and later picking is yielding riper fruit. A long term replanting plan is underway. This estate is producing its best wine in decades.
