Score 88/100 · Drink 2016-2026, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jan 2016
The darker, richer side of Pomerol comes through in the 2012 Bellegrave. Plums, mocha, cloves, menthol, new leather and licorice are some of the notes that open up in this decidedly fleshy, up-front offering. Soft, silky tannins round out the creamy finish. The blend is 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc. Readers will find much to enjoy here over the next decade or so.
