Note di degustazione
Smoky black fruits, tobacco, leather, and a hint of lead pencil emerge from the 2005 Château Belgrave, an impressive Haut-Medoc that’s medium-bodied, has a ripe, balanced mouthfeel, and high-quality tannins. It’s a hidden little gem of a wine to enjoy over the coming 7-8 years.

The 2005 Belgrave is a gorgeous Haut-Médoc. Bold and punchy, the 2005 has plenty of richness and power. Succulent black cherry, mocha, tobacco licorice, dried herbs, mint, gravel and crushed flowers abound. I imagine the 2005 still has another decade of fine drinking to offer. It sure is impressive, that much is obvious.
Owned by the famous négociant firm of Dourthe, the 2005 Belgrave is a solid effort from a property that has tremendous upside. This dark ruby/plum-colored wine exhibits classic Médoc notes of tobacco leaf, unsmoked cigars, spice box, blackcurrants and cedar wood. It is medium-bodied, with relatively ripe, soft tannins, and a nice, lush finish. Drink it over the next 10-15 years.
