If any wine epitomizes what is so uniquely grand about the 2009 Bordeaux vintage it's this one. Even though Belian-Giraud is "just" a petit chateau, it has the same uncanny harmony, lushness, and purity of the fruit that marks the Grand Crus in 2009. This was presented to us by our good friend, super-negociant Bill Blatch, and we fell in love with it. Bill, who has tasted them all, feels exactly the same way about this wine that we do. It's terrific. |

Description:
If any wine epitomizes what is so uniquely grand about the 2009 Bordeaux vintage it's this one. Even though Belian-Giraud is just a petit château, I find in it the same uncanny harmony, lushness, and purity of the fruit the marks the grand crus in 2009. This was presented to us by super-negociant Bill Blatch, author of the influential Annual Bordeaux Vintage Report and a true scholar of the region, and we fell in love with it. Bill, who has tasted them all, feels exactly the same way about this wine that we do. It's terrific. -- Ben Giliberti |
