2021 Chateau Belair Monange – St. Emilion Premier Grand Cru Classe

Antonio Galloni: *The 2021 Bélair-Monange is a very beautiful wine. Fruit forward and punchy, the 2021 makes quite a first impression. Ripeness is naturally less pushed here than in recent vintages – that is the year – but it is a style that works so well, as this site offers plenty of richness on its own. A rush of inky red/purplish fruit fills out the layers nicely. There’s not a ton of nuance or detail yet, but that will likely come in time. This is very nicely done.*
