From the famous Moueix family, Château Bélair-Monange has been released with a 30% discount to 2022 - with scores up to 98 points.

The Bélair-Monange is made in very small quantities and distribution is strictly controlled by Moueix; it's not easy to get hold of. Well worth making the effort however as it represents the pinnacle of wines from the Right Bank, yet at a considerable discount to the “big beasts” of Pomerol: Pétrus, Lafleur and even Vieux Château Certain.

Drinking window: 2028 - 2040

What the critics say:

96-98/100Lisa Perrotti-Brown, The Wine Independent

"The 2023 Belair-Monange, 100% Merlot, is medium to deep garnet-purple in color. It needs a few moments of patient swirling to allow delicate notes of warm black cherries, plum preserves, and raspberry coulis to emerge, followed by alluring hints of iris, cinnamon stick, and mossy tree bark. The medium to full-bodied palate is taut with tightly wound red and black berry layers, framed by fine-grained tannins and seamless freshness, finishing on a lingering fragrant earth note. This is breathtakingly gorgeous!"

97-98/100James Suckling

"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."

97/100Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux

"Makes you sit up and pay attention from the first moment, full of depth and power but delivered with a caress. The slate and pumice stone texture of a vineyard on the limestone plateau is in full effect, with a saline juiciness to the bilberry and black cherry fruit, shot through with white truffle and mandarin peel. Has zip and crunch, and a ton of pleasure. 50% new oak, 55% of overall production. First vintage made with the stunning new cellars designed by Herzog and de Meuron fully open and functional, although 2nd one vinified in them."
