  "Der große Bellefont-Belcier brilliert auch nach der Abfüllung. Satt, dicht und viskos in der Optik. Süß, fleischig, schokoladig und karamellig, verfügt er über eine sehr konzentrierte Nase mit likörigen Obertönen und kühlem Kernaroma. Sehr geradlinig auf der Zunge und noch nicht so offen und fleischig wie das Schwestergut Tour Saint Christophe, besitzt der Bellefont- Belcier mehr Distinktion und Finesse. Sein großes Kalkstein-Terroir kommt mit delikater, reservierter Frucht voll zur Geltung. 13.5 Vol.-%."

  The Wine Advocate
  "The 2021 Bellefont Belcier opens in the glass with aromas of dark cherries, berries, violets and licorice framed by a discreet touch of new oak. Medium to full-bodied, ample and seamless, it's layered and enveloping, with good depth at the core and impressive mid-palate plenitude, concluding with an expansive finish."

  "Racy strawberries and red plums with a subtle sweet-sour accent. Fresh herbs, stones and grapefruit as well. Medium body on the palate with a linear set of fruit rounded by chalky tannins. Juicy and vibrant finish. Already delicious."

  Decanter
  "Blackcurrants, rose petals and cocoa powder on the nose. Fresh and slightly tart in a lively way, the fruit and acidity is at the fore giving life and energy. It's light and lean, but doesn't feel as if it's missing the mid-palate depth, it's complete in its way with redcurrants, creamy black cherries, freshly-picked strawberries and a salty, wet stone finish."

  Falstaff
  "Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Zart nach Nougat und Feigen, frische Pflaumen, mit kandierten Orangenzesten unterlegt, einladendes Bukett. Saftig, elegant, frisch strukturiert, rote Kirschen, reife, gut integrierte Tannine, feine Limettennoten im Abgang, mineralisch-salziger Touch im Nachhall, ein lebendiger Speisenbegleiter."

  The Wine Cellar Insider
  "Still with a touch of oak to resolve, the wine is packed with loads of soft, silky, supple red fruits, spice, flowers, freshness, mint, espresso and cocoa in every sniff and sip. Drink from 2024-2038."

  "Checking in as a blend of 75% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2021 Château Bellefont-Belcier is another pure, elegant, seamless wine in the vintage that shines for its purity. Ripe strawberries, subtle blue fruits, sappy flowers, and a beautiful sense of minerality all define the aromatics, and it hits the palate with medium-bodied richness, a supple, layered mouthfeel, and outstanding length. Tasted multiple times with consistent results. This estate continues to produce impeccable wines in every vintage."
