Chateau Belgrave 2012

WINE ENTHUSIAST: "91–93. Barrel sample. Rich blackberry fruits are surrounded by a dense structure on this wine. The palate is ripe, but balanced with acidity, juiciness and a solid concentrated character."

JAMES SUCKLING: "Beautiful nose showing concentrated ripe fruits. This is a full-bodied red with velvety tannins, lovely acidity and a long, fruity finish. Well done for the vintage. Drink from 2017."

WEINWISSER: "Sattes Purpur-Granat, dicht in der Mitte, lila Schimmer aussen. Schwarze Kirschen, sehr dunkle Rösttöne, schwarze Oliven, Arabica-Kaffee, dahinter florale Züge. Das Extrakt ist kompakt und etwas fordernd, die Tannine prägnant, leicht kernig. Ein kräftiger Belgrave, der vielleicht in der Anfangsphase recht viel Geduld braucht."
