Château Bel Air

In maturing the wine, the most traditional methods are used : 150 oak stave barrels, one third of which are renewed each year.

A further guarantee of quality is that our wines are bottled at the château 18 to 20 months are harvesting.

By that time, our wine has a fine, deep colour, it is tannic without being aggressive. Its fruit makes it a pleasant drink in its early years, but it reaches full maturity at five or ten years old or even more.

Unending watchfulness, constant questioning, nothing left to chance, every act and gesture honed to perfection – this is how a great wine is born.

This care and attention has brought our wine recognition and the many Gold and Silver Medals won at competitions in Paris and Bordeaux.

Château Bel-Air is best enjoyed at 16 à 18°C. Do not hesitate to decant it an hour beforehand and serve in a carafe.

The 1998 vintage was the first year of our new prestige wine.

Made from very old vines and matured only in new barrels it will be known as : Cuvée Jean Gabriel as a tribute to our father and grandfather.
