ANSON: "Love the deep rich ruby colour here, inky and saline expression that has a ton of texture and interest. The sappy fruits of the year are here balanced and laced with depth and character. Gunsmoke, cold ash, blueberry, raspberry puree, pumice and slate, plenty of life ahead. JC Meyrou estate director, Emmanuelle Fulchi d'Aligny technical director."

VINUM: "Mittelkräftiges Rubinrot; dezent reduktive Nase, diese verschwindet rasch, ungemein frisch im Ausdruck, ein Mix aus dunklen und roten Beeren, dazu kühler Rauch, eine subtile Kräuternote schwingt mit; leichtfüssig am Gaumen, frisch, delikate Frucht, sehr gut verpackte, präsente Tannine, der Wein zeigt Rasse und Schliff, hallt lange nach; endet würzig mit Blutorangen und Sauerkirschen im Rückaroma. Sehr elegant."

FALSTAFF: "Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Zart tabakig unterlegte Brombeerfrucht, dunkle Kirschen, kandierte Orangenzesten. Saftig, elegant, rotbeerige Textur, finessenreicher Säurebogen, mineralisch-salzig im Abgang, bleibt haften, ein facettenreicher Speisenbegleiter mit Reifepotenzial."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "The 2024 Bellefont Belcier is sensual and perfumed, unfurling in the glass with aromas of violet, mulberries, blackberries and spices mingled with a delicate reductive profile. Medium to full-bodied, enrobing and seamless, it's layered with good depth at the core and velvety tannins that lead to an energetic, calcareous-driven finish. This is a blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon."
