A brilliant showing, the 2012 Château Belair-Monange comes from a great terroir that is being resurrected by the Moueix team, located on a south-facing hillside just outside of Saint-Emilion. Sporting a deep ruby hue, it...

Powerful dark fruits, layered over with anis, fennel, saffron, white pepper, tobacco, smoked butterscotch. Impressive, a little more oak influence than you might find in this wine today perhaps, but the limestone...

Vinous, September 2022
