Château Belgrave (Haut-Médoc)
Charming, old-school claret with a light, rose hip tea color. The nose exudes strawberries, dried flowers, cedar, tobacco and peppery cassis.

This is a lighter-styled classic Left Bank Bordeaux that served blind, I thought it was from the 70s. Drink from 2024-2026. 1,226 Views Tasted Jan 28, 2024 |
