    • Description

      Around 65% merlot, the remainder being made up of the Cabernets, this wine displays a beautiful nose of cassis, chocolate, blackberries alongside notes of crushed rock and minerality. There is a great balance of freshness and ripeness, and the palate displays nice complexity. Expect notes of dark and red fruits, tobacco leaf, mint, dark chocolate framed by a full body and strong but unaggressive tannins. This is a beautiful expression of Saint-Emilion.

    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.
