2020 Belgrave 6 Pack

93 POINTS

James Suckling

Notes of cassis and blackberries with hints of spices, dark chocolate, cedar and leafy herbs. Medium- to full-bodied with ripe and velvety tannins. It has lots of energy and vibrancy to the dark-fruited palate. It’s both structured and juicy. Really well made. Better in 2025 and onwards.

Antonio Galloni MW - Vinous

The 2020 Belgrave is a dark, brooding wine. Black cherry, gravel, smoke, cured meat and incense all run through this deep, alluring Haut-Médoc. This virile, muscular wine has a ton to offer. A whole range of savory Cabernet Sauvignon notes infuse the resonant finish with tons of character.

Antonio Galloni MW - Vinous

The 2020 Belgrave is a promising Haut-Médoc. Graphite, scorched earth, cloves, licorice and lavender create a deep, penetrating bouquet. There is good depth and energy here, even if the 2020 remains just a bit lean. All the Belgrave needs is a bit more midpalate juiciness. Tasted two times.

Neal Martin - Vinous

The 2020 Belgrave has quite a potent, powerful nose with layers of blackberry and bilberry fruit, a light marine influence, though it needs a little more definition. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, quite a muscular Haut-Médoc, firming up towards the finish that exerts a bit of grip. Afford this 3-4 years in bottle and you will have a very decent Haut-Médoc.

Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW - Wine Advocate

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2020 Belgrave gives up expressive scents of crushed red and black currants, ripe cranberries and bay leaves with touches of pencil lead, wild mushrooms and tree bark. The medium-bodied palate has a lively backbone and loads of herbal sparks lifting the red and black fruits, framed by soft, approachable tannins, finishing savory.
