Tasting Notes

Vinous 90

The 2021 Belgrave was picked from September 27 to October 7 and contains a little more Cabernet this year; it was aged in 29% new oak. The nose takes its time opening, revealing blackberry, touches of black pepper and menthol, all fresh and vibrant and the oak nicely integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with insistent grip on the entry. Quite Saint-Julien in style (no surprise given its vines border the appellation), with fine structure and salinity on the finish. Maybe just a little short, but I admire its classicism and sapidity. [Neal Martin, 05/12/2022]
