  Chateau Bel Air Bordeaux 2011
 
 
 
Bordeaux AOC wines have stricter production norms, which means the wines are always of optimum performance and therefore we are able to snap up some spectacular wines at prices to make you smile. As a result, these wines are generally more complex and have a better ageing potential and Chateau Bel Air is no exception. This wine is soft, ruby red, well balanced and complex. It has flavours of blackberries, raspberries, cherries, warm earth and a note of mint .Light-medium ruby colour; medium intensity blackberry, cherry, oak spice and tobacco aromas; full bodied, flavours of red cherry, plum, tobacco and oak spice with a medium length finish.
