Silver medal Lyon 2019. Hachette Guide one star.
- A characteristically fruity and supple Bordeaux, this wine demonstrates the approachable character that defines the Comte Bellegarde cuvée. The structure is refined without heaviness, making it an excellent introduction to serious Bordeaux drinking.
- This wine pairs naturally with roasted red meats and poultry, as well as with lighter game preparations. Its balance and moderate weight make it equally suited to cheese courses, particularly aged Comté and similar hard cheeses.
- The wine announces itself through generous aromas of red and dark berries. On the palate, these fruit notes develop further, complemented by subtle toasted notes that add complexity without overwhelming the wine's essential freshness.

In the mouth
The attack is immediately fruity with notes of toasted bread adding depth. The tannins are fully integrated and soft, providing structure without astringency. The finish is rounded and persistent, with a pleasant savoury edge.
On the nose
Aromas of cherry and mixed red berries predominate, with hints of wild berry undertones. The bouquet is clean and inviting, showing good fruit definition.
On the eye
Deep ruby colour with good intensity and clarity.
Breeding
Traditional winemaking
This is a well-made Bordeaux that rewards the collector's attention without demanding extended cellaring. The balance between fruit, oak treatment, and tannin integration speaks to careful élevage. I recommend it for those seeking a reliable, food-friendly claret that represents genuine value in the current market.
