Iconic 98 Point Vintage: 2016 Chateau Bellegrave Du Poujeau Cru Bourgeois
If you’re looking for amazing quality Bordeaux at an amazing price, a Cru Bourgeois is your answer. These wines are born in the same regions as some of the world’s most emblematic wines, are crafted with the same esteemed Bordeaux Blend, and have an enormous approachability, which means they can be enjoyed much earlier in life. In short words, Cru Bourgeois are some of the best value wines out there.
Today’s offer, the 2016 Chateau Bellegrave Du Poujeau Cru Bourgeois, is one we personally love, so much that we decided to exclusively import it. This means we can offer this stunning wine at the best price anywhere!
Chateau Bellegrave is perfectly placed between La Lagune and Château Giscours. This charming little estate has everything its more renowned neighbors do, yet sells at half the cost, just to give you an idea, the same 2016 vintage of La Lagune sells for up to $130/bottle, and the 2016 Château Giscours can be found for over $70/bottle... talk about amazing value!
On top of that, this wine comes from an exceptional year for this region. Vinous awarded the 2016 vintage 98 points, heralding the wines as “absolutely harmonious”.
This wine is everything you'd expect from a Cru Bourgeois, but better. Characterized for its elegant taste, long finish, and extraordinary aging potential, the Chateau Bellegrave is an ode to its terroir.
