Professionelle Bewertungen

Robert Parker (96)

One of the highlights in Moueix’s portfolio this year, the 2023 Château Bélair-Monange has turned out superbly, revealing aromas of rose petals, violet, mulberries, cassis and spices. Medium- to full-bodied, layered and enveloping, it is built around a fleshy core of fruit framed by powdery tannins, its vibrancy heightened by lively acidity derived from its calcareous soils, concluding with a long, ethereal finish.

There’s finesse and beauty to this, with blackberry, dark-chocolate, bark, mushroom and forest-floor character. But it’s all class. Caresses your palate. Medium- to full-bodied and very long. Persistent and sophisticated. This shows the true character of the diverse vineyards of this estate. 98% merlot and 2% cabernet franc.

The 2023 Bélair-Monange is an elegant, sophisticated wine. Silky tannins and lifted aromatics convey the essence of finesse. Sweet floral notes open first. On the palate, the 2023 is remarkably polished for such a young wine. Then again, we are on Saint-Émilion's famed limestone plateau, where wines are born with refinement.

Ripe red and black fruits, chocolaty minerality, graphite, and spring flowers all emerge from the 2023 Château Bélair-Monange, a brilliant Saint-Emilion that delivers the goods. Coming from a mix of the upper plateau and the hillside just outside the village, it's 100% Merlot aged 16-18 months in 50% new French oak. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it has a layered, oh, so polished, graceful mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It has absolute classic Saint-Emilion limestone-driven minerality, and I'd be thrilled to drink a bottle today given its balance, purity, and elegance, yet it deserves 5-7 years of bottle age and will see its 30th (probably 40th) birthday in fine form. It reminds me slightly of an improved 2012. Drink 2031-2063.
