Domaine Du Bel Air Bourgueil Grand Mont 2021 750ml

Domaine du Bel Air Bourgueil “Grand Mont” 2021 is a refined single-vineyard Cabernet Franc from Bourgueil in France’s Loire Valley. Sourced from organically cultivated vines on clay-limestone soils, this wine expresses the distinctive character of its terroir through freshness, mineral precision, and elegant structure. The cooler 2021 vintage brings a more restrained, finely detailed expression, with fresh red and dark fruit, floral aromas, and firm yet refined tannins. Traditional fermentation with indigenous yeasts and extended ageing in oak barrels contribute depth and complexity while preserving the wine’s natural freshness. A sophisticated choice for lovers of classic, age-worthy Loire Valley reds.
