Château Belgrave

AOC Haut-Médoc

Declared Grand Cru Classé in 1855, Château Belgrave is the estate’s fine wine. A majority blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, it reveals all the finesse and character of this great terroir. Dense and deep, it is an age-worthy wine with fresh, complex flavours, and very ‘Saint-Julien’ in style.

Tasting notes

Deep, almost black in appearance, On the nose, aromas of dark fruits and layers of liquorice seamlessly interweave, enhanced by a fresh touch of mint. Concentrated, direct and very well-balanced on the palate, defined by delicate, yet silky, generous tannins. Long, savoury and juicy on the final. This is an impressively ageworthy wine that embodies all the elegance of the Château Belgrave terroir.

Blending

  • 40% Merlot

Diane de Belgrave is Château Belgrave’s second wine. The name is a reminder of the estate’s historic links to hunting. Benefiting from the same viticultural regime and winemaking facilities as the Grand Cru Classé wine, the second wine is made from younger vines. The result is a supple, fruity wine with delicate tannins.
