Note di degustazione
The 2025 Bélair-Monange was picked between September 4 and 19 and matured in 50% new oak. This has a classy nose, understated at first, exquisite delineation, nuanced with its mixture of red and black fruit, sage, undergrowth and light rose petal scents, real purity. The palate is armed with a satin-like texture, real depth and gentle grip, yet discreet and poised with disarming pliancy and fluidity on the almost viscous finish. Real umami sensation with this wine. This is a sophisticated Bélair-Monange that will give decades of drinking pleasure.

Ripe red and black fruits, savory flowers, classic Saint-Emilion chalky minerality, and camphor all shine in the 2025 Château Bélair-Monange, the flagship in the Moueix range born from a mix of Château Magdelaine and Château Belair, first made in 2012. Based on 98% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc, it's medium to full-bodied on the palate, with a pure, graceful mouthfeel, velvety tannins, and a great finish. A brilliant Saint-Émilion, it has the purity and balance to shine in its youth yet should age gracefully as well.
The 2025 Bélair-Monange is another outstanding wine from Saint-Émilion's plateau in this very challenging vintage. Aromatic, sculpted and wonderfully precise, Bélair-Monange marries power with finesse. Floral overtones, blood orange and a kick of exotic spice meld into red-toned fruit as the 2025 shows off its considerable allure. Clean saline notes appear on the mid-palate, adding tension and energy through to the reverberating finish.
The 2025 Château Belair-Monange opens in the glass with rich aromas of sweet cherries, berry preserve and fruit compote mingled with hints of licorice and spices. Medium- to full-bodied, satiny and suave, it's lively and polished, with a rich core of sun-kissed fruit and a youthfully structured finish.
