Chateau Belingard is located in the heart of the Monbazillac and Bergerac wine region. The De Bosredon family has been working this land for over two hundred years. They use various grape varieties, including Sauvignon, Semillon, and Muscadelle for their white wines, and Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Malbec for their reds. Today, Laurent is at the helm, combining age-old traditions with the latest techniques to produce exquisite wines. The wines are balanced, fresh, and all full of character.
For this Reserve wine, only the finest grapes from the vineyard are selected. After careful harvesting, the grapes are transported to the winery, where they undergo an eight-hour cold maceration. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks. Wooden barrels are deliberately avoided, as the oak notes would quickly become too dominant. Finally, the young wine is aged in tanks for several months to achieve greater complexity.
And it certainly succeeded. In the glass, this Reserve Bergerac Sec emerges with a brilliant straw-yellow color. It boasts beautiful aromas of peach and apricot, complemented by a hint of vanilla. It's very pleasant on the palate, refined and creamy, with a pleasant peach and vanilla texture. The fruity flavor is beautifully balanced with a pleasant acidity. The finish is creamy and lingering, quickly drawing you to another sip. This white wine pairs well with traditional fish dishes or a spicy Asian dish.
