Château Bel-Air La Royère - Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux - L'esprit de Bel-Air 2016

IN CONVERSION TO ORGANIC FARMING

Key words : Black fruits / Oaky / Tasty

The wine : The Esprit de Bel-Air is a delicious Blaye with excellent value for money! Endowed with a very beautiful depth of fruit, ripe tannins as well as a gourmet oakyness with notes of toasted bread, this cuvée will make you understand the "spirit" of the Château and constitutes an ideal gateway to the Grand Vin of the estate. A very precisely balanced and beautiful bottle. Thank you Ms. Chevrier!

The estate: Taken over in 1992 by the Chevrier family, the Château Bel-Air La Royère consists of 14 hectares and has been managed since 2011 by Corinne. The soils of the property are clay-limestone and the vineyard has been entirely certified organic since the 2019 vintage. A large proportion of Malbec (30% of the grape variety) constitutes the signature of the property. The estate is part of the elite AOC Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux and is capable of composing pleasure vintages as well as high-quality wines for keeping. A very pretty family vineyard to discover and show off!
