Description

Clos Bellerose Figeac 1970 – Saint-Émilion Grand Cru

The 1970 Clos Bellerose Figeac is a red wine from the Saint-Émilion Grand Cru appellation on Bordeaux’s Right Bank. Situated on clay-limestone soils, the estate benefits from a terroir perfectly suited to the expression of Merlot, dominant in the blend, and Cabernet Franc, producing wines of elegance and great finesse.

The 1970 vintage, known for its balanced climatic conditions, produced a wine that is both structured and harmonious. Today, the wine shows an evolved ruby color, with a complex nose of ripe red fruits, forest floor, truffle, leather, and soft spices. On the palate, the tannins have softened over time, offering a velvety texture, fine freshness, and a long, refined finish.

The 1970 Clos Bellerose Figeac is a collector’s wine, ideal for lovers of great Saint-Émilion, offering a subtle balance of power, elegance, and aromatic complexity.
