Chateau Bellegrave, Pauillac, France 2021 Ica Valley and a few nubby tanninsAshy berries, orange zest, currants, chili chocolate and a touch of black pepper. Juicy and fine grained on the palate with medium to full body and a succulent finish. Fresh and pretty lengthy. Drink or hold. 92 Pts James Suckling This small estate in the heart of Pauillac has produced a perfumed, polished wine. Wood aging and black fruits are still prominent and need to soften. It is a fine wine from this major appellation. Drink from 2026. 92 Pts
