Château du Tertre Belair 2019

2019 was another banner year in France’s most celebrated wine region: “this is a beautiful, incredibly high-quality vintage for Bordeaux that will certainly be included in the list of recent great vintages ... The wines show beautiful ripeness and relatively sunny, full-bodied characters,” writes critic Jeb Dunnuck.

You could plunk down a hefty chunk of change on a wine from one of Bordeaux’s famous names. But for amazing value (especially from this in-demand vintage) savvy wine fans head to small, quality-focused, family-owned estates in the Côtes de Bordeaux district – and are rewarded handsomely.

Taste for yourself with this elegant beauty from Bruno Dellac’s Château du Tertre Belair. He planted vines here over 30 years ago, which he farms entirely organically (lowering yields and increasing flavor). Last vintage, the wine won a coveted gold medal, and we expect more acclaim for the 2019 release.

With its ripe black currant, blackberry, and toasty oak notes, Château du Tertre Belair is a perfect match for hearty roasts or meaty stews. Order your share today and make this Bordeaux the star of your dinner table.
