Description
Taking its name from the words “Belle Fontaine” or “beautiful fountain”, Château Bellefont-Belcier references the many hidden hillside springs of which the vines plunge their roots. Whilst it has undertaken different ownerships over the years, this repeated change in direction has not affected the integrity of the wine. Typical of Saint-Émilion, Château Bellefont-Belcier comprises a majority Merlot blend, averaging 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. A sensual character, Bellefont Belcier’s smooth polished tannins mingle with flavours of ripe red berries and hints of liquorice which leaves you pining after the next sip.
