Critic Scores

98 // Vinum Wine Magazine

"Dark-fruited, with black cherries, some tobacco, dark chocolate, liquorice and cool fireplace on the nose; soft and round on the attack, building a lot of pressure on the mid-palate, yet less powerful than in other years, grippy, ripe limestone tannins provide support, the acidity is perfectly balanced and carries the wine into an almost never-ending finish. This is a small wine monument and certainly the best Bellefont-Belcier I have had the pleasure of tasting so far. (Drink from 2032 to 2070) - 96 to 98 Points - Adrian Van Velsen"

98 // Yves Beck

"The symbiosis between notes of ripe black berries, iris, and mint underscores the wine's inherent complexity. Not forgetting the chalky notes, which act as ambassadors of the terroir! Then there's the finesse, a testament to the meticulous work of the team, from vineyard to cellar. Slightly creamy on the attack, the wine gains substance on the palate. It displays a velvety texture, supported by compact and powerful tannins. These tannins exhibit austere nuances, reinforcing freshness and persistence. A brilliant wine in its ability to so skillfully combine charm and power, ultimately resulting in a harmony that is both striking and exhilarating. Indeed, paradoxes are sometimes the best of companions. 2030-2060 - 96 to 98 Points - Yves Beck"

96 // James Suckling

"The depth and intensity in the center palate makes you think. It’s medium- to full-bodied with very integrated, polished grape tannins. Creamy texture. A curated and transparent effort. - 95 to 96 Points - James Suckling"

96 // The Wine Advocate

"The 2025 Bellefont-Belcier stands out once again as one of the highlights in the Vignobles K range. It offers a lively bouquet of cassis, mulberries and cherries mingled with spices and pencil lead. Medium- to full-bodied, layered and seamless, it’s built around a concentrated core of fruit that's animated by bright acidity and framed by velvety tannins. The finish is long, ethereal and perfumed. It's a blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, matured one-third in foudres, with a pH of 3.48. This is one of the most accomplished wines produced at this address to date. - 95 to 96 Points - Yohan Castaing"

Chateau Bellefont-Belcier

Chateau Bellefont Belcier dates back to the seventeenth century as an estate. The vineyard was officially founded in the middle of the eighteenth century by Count Louis Francois de Belcier, which as you can guess, is where the estate took the first part of its name from.

In 1803, the Count constructed the chateau that remains in use today. The Count was also responsible for giving the estate the first part of its name, Bellefont. The 12.5 hectare vineyards of Bellefont Belcier are planted to 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. However, the entire estate is 20 hectares.
