Château Bélair Saint-Émilion 1er Grand Cru Classé 2004

Dark garnet color. Nose of light smoke, fruit, tobacco, some oak, but everything with this classy and noble Bordeaux feel. Quite open on the palate, this was so good! Beautiful flavors and silky mouth feel wrapping the remaining structure that will allow this wine to age many more years in the cellar. Saint-Emilion charm without its richness. Drank along with the 2006 vintage, I prefered this one for its classic Bordeaux feel… Excellent+ (92)

The property is planted with 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc. The Estate is named since 2008 Bélair-Monange, as it was bought by les Établissements Jean-Pierre Moueix. Alcohol level of 13,5%
