Chateau Bellegrave, Pauillac, France 2016 Vermut the Rüdesheimer Berg begins toA very attractive array of purple flowers, dark stones and cocoa powder with a wealth of spicy dark berries and earthy nuances. The palate has a very plush, juicy and deep set build of regal tannins. Long, seamless finish. Right on form and one of the best from here in recent times, as well as being one of the value wines of the vintage. 93 Pts James Suckling
