Varietal Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

Appellation Saint Emilion

The beautiful sub-region of Saint Emilion in France's legendary Bordeaux region is regarded as the home of many of the world's finest red wines. The blending techniques employed in Saint Emilion have been passed down for generations, and aim to express the very finest flavors of the grape varietals used, most commonly Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The climatic conditions in Saint Emilion are perfect for growing many of the Bordeaux grapes, and high yields of exceptional quality are commonplace. Fed by the mighty Gironde river and benefiting from superb clay and gravel based soils, Saint Emilion produces millions of bottles of high quality blended and unblended red wines each year, and continues to be a firm favorite of wine experts and the general public alike.

#64 in Top 100 Wines of France, 2025. This has an opulence that’s reined in by the crushed-stone and fine-tannin character. It's full-bodied with tight and polished tannins that have energy and precision. Very linear and structured. This comes from great limestone soils that give this wine a freshness and focus. Salty and chalky at the end. Drink after 2030.

#33 in Top 100 Wines, 2025. Sweet black cherries, cassis, chalky minerality, herbes de Provence, and sappy floral and incense nuances all define the 2022 Château Bélair-Monange, a 98% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc that is more extroverted compared to the 2020 yet with a similar level of purity, balance, and elegance. It's incredibly well-balanced on the palate, with full-bodied richness, integrated acidity, polished tannins, and a great finish. Despite its overall richness and power, it stays graceful and light on its feet. It should take roughly a decade of cellaring to hit full maturity (you'll be excused for drinking a bottle today) and will evolve for 30-40 years. Drink 2036-2066.

A smoky nose filled with aromatic blackcurrants, violets, dark chocolate, vanilla cream and clove. Deep, layered and cooling, this is a gentle giant - you can feel the waves of power and the depth of flavour but it's so calm and controlled. Wonderfully finessed tannins, pure black bramble fruit and appealing crushed stone elements. Extremely classy, this feels so well executed, a restrained hand in terms of winemaking and oak given the integration of the tannins and beautiful cool and fresh tones from start to finish. Less overt acidity than some, this really focuses on the construction and layering of elements. Serious but seductive. A sophisticated wine that belies the vintage conditions.

The Wine Independent

This flagship Moueix wine is 99% Merlot and 1% Cabernet Franc, and it suggests wonderful density and purity combined on the nose, with blackcurrant, juniper, garden mint and tobacco. The palate is fresh and elegantly composed, with a sweet and finely polished core of dried berry fruits, with rose petals, peonies and rosemary, wrapped around a tightly strung frame of confident tannins, which give the wine a serious grip but which never seem to dominate. Beautifully composed, with such energy in the finish, this is surely the best Bélair-Monange yet – presumably those grandiose new cellars on the hilltop above St Emilion have something to do with that? The long finish, elegantly formed yet riven with ripe tannins, suggest it will go the distance as well.

Ripe and caressing in feel, with delicious boysenberry and black cherry compote flavors that roll through, with notes of black licorice, bay and chestnut. Alder and warm humus accents frame the finish as chalky minerality lingers amid the fruit. Large in scale but reserved in style. Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2028 through 2042.

Vinous Media

The 2022 Belair-Monange comes across just a little smudged on the nose, black plum and a touch of sloes, hints of blood orange in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with saturated tannins, good backbone and real depth with cracked black pepper towards the finish. Maybe it does not quite deliver the personality of its peers, but there is substance and intent. Tasted blind at the Southwold tasting in London.

WA 94pts

Wine Advocate

The 2022 Belair Monange opens in the glass with aromas of jammy blackberries, licorice, smoked meats and mocha. Full-bodied, layered and dense, with chalky tannins and a carnal finish, the estate's limestone soils translate into the liveliest wine in the Mouiex portfolio this year, despite its super-ripe profile.
