But don't worry, you'll find plenty more handpicked wines here.
Flavor Profile
Jean-Marc Sauboua knows a thing or two about great Bordeaux—after all, he trained at First Growth Château Haut-Brion. Today, he’s chief winemaker at Le Chai au Quai, a “fabulous venture” (Decanter), where he crafts unique, first-class wines.
His latest mission? A stylish southern French Cabernet with loads of black-fruit flavor—and a top-value price tag. No easy feat. But take a sip of Belle Roche, and we think you’ll see that he’s accomplished his goal.
Previous vintages have scooped major acclaim, including “French Wine of the Year” at the China Wine & Spirits Best Value Awards and a gold medal from France’s premier wine guide, Gilbert & Gaillard: “Beautiful dark purple appearance. Fruity nose evoking small ripe blackberries. A lovely tannic structure on the palate, with ripe aromas and fruit rapidly and richly evolving into chocolate notes.” The new 2019 release is every bit as impressive—and earned yet another gold medal from Gilbert & Gaillard.
As with a fine Bordeaux, we recommend you decant the wine an hour before serving to soften the tannins and open up all those black-fruit flavors. And just like Bordeaux, Belle Roche was made to be enjoyed with food. It will be delicious with a juicy steak, rack of lamb, and even hearty stews or casseroles.
