Château Bel Air la Royère (Blaye)
Another great example of a solid Bordeaux value wine. Drink this over the next few years to get most out of its fresh, fleshy, supple, earthy, black cherry and licorice filled character. 2,228 Views Tasted Aug 4, 2013 |
2005
Château Bel Air la Royère (Blaye)
This fully mature, medium bodied, round textured wine, with its sweet, earthy, dark red fruits, spice, licorice, smoke and tobacco characteristics needs to be drunk up over the next few years before the fruit slides away. This is an interesting wine as it has one of the highest percentages of old vine Malbec in Bordeaux with about 45% of it in the blend. 3,390 Views Tasted Sep 24, 2016 |
