St Emilion Grand Cru 2022 - Château Moulin Bellegrave

Antoine Mabileau manages the 16 hectares of Château Moulin Bellegrave in the Saint-Emilion Grand Cru appellation area. His young and dynamic approach, associated with his perfect technical mastery has contributed to the renaissance of the property with the strictest respect for its reclaimed gritty ‘terroir’. The quality of this wine is on a par with the most prestigious wines of Bordeaux.
The winegrowing techniques used for several years are maintained and refined: natural controlled grass growing between every second row of vines, vine selection, manual leaf thinning, green harvesting, selection of grape harvest both at the vines and the winery. The winegrower respects the practice of sustainable agriculture.

Tasting notes

Sublime red colour with purple hues, nose of intense black fruits mixed with notes of truffle. On the palate the wine shows off its structure with beautifully elegant tannins. The wine is particularly dense, its tastes lingering on the tongue, its finish expressed by a beautiful retronasal aroma of ripe fruits.

Ageing

An ageing period of 7 to 10 years laid flat in darkened cellar. A period in which the flavours will further develop to charm the consumer’s palate.

Service

Serve at 14 à 16°C decanting 2 hours beforehand. It accompanies wonderfully meats (beef, duck, pigeon, lamb, game…) blue cheeses, dark chocolate desserts.
