Château Belair-Monange St Emilion Grand Cru Premier Grand Cru Classé B 2009

Deep ruby in colour, crushed roses, incense and sandalwood on the opening, a fragrant reminder of the heat of the vintage, fleshy, lifted, spiced cumin, leather, peony, raspberry puree, ready to go, great stuff. The first full vintage under the Moueix family, after they bought from Pascal Dalbeck in 2008. 50% new oak for ageing. Renamed from Belair after Adèle Monange, who was the first of the Moueix family to live in St-Emilion when the family moved from Corrèze to Bordeaux.
