Le toasté du nez disparaît progressivement au profit des fruits noirs et de la menthe,on apprécie l’attaque en bouche pleine, avec du ressor et une fin de bouche sur la guimauve.

Jean-Marie Bouldy can produce great Pomerol from his gravel-based vineyard. The 2016 Bellegrave has a straightforward bouquet with black cherries, boysenberry and light marine/seaweed aromas, marrying a little Left Bank austerity into the opulence of Pomerol. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe tannin, well judged acidity, clean and pure in the mouth though to quibble, it requires a touch more complexity to develop on the finish. I suspect this will improve by the time of bottling.

Couleur sombre, intense, pourpre. Nez fruité qui merlotte. Très savoureux dès l’entrée en bouche, le vin offre un toucher raffiné, un corps élancé et moelleux ainsi qu’une finale longue et fruitée avec un retour de saveurs d’agrumes. Tannin fin. Joli !

The 2016 Bellegrave offers lovely purity and focus in a translucent, midweight style. Bright acids and the significant presence of Cabernet Franc perk up the red stone fruit, blood orange, mint and floral notes. Nuanced and beautifully delineated, the 2016 has much to offer.
