CRITIC REVIEWS
Neal Martin
The 2022 Bellefont-Belcier is more expressive on the nose than it showed at primeur, where there was some variation between bottles. This offers copious red fruit, kirsch and desiccated orange peel aromas, though it needs a little more precision and delineation. The palate is medium-bodied and quite fresh, with grainy tannins and a touch of white pepper. It tapers in slightly toward the finish. Drink this over the next 12 to 15 years.

72% Merlot, 18% Cabernet Franc, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. Cask sample.Mid crimson. Rich dried-fruit nose. Real energy here. Quite sappy palate without enormous intensity but great balance and interest. Quite long. (JR)
