Score 92/100 · Drink 2026-2040, Neal Martin, Apr 2026

The 2016 Clos la Madeleine, which was one of the final vintages before it was subsumed into Bélair-Monange, has a slightly more high-toned and exotic bouquet compared to its peers: black cherries, leather and clove, harmonious with well-integrated oak. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly dry tannins, a solid Right Bank '16, a little savoury and Rhône-like towards the finish, though I appreciate the length. Very fine. Tasted blind at the Southwold 10-Year-On tasting.

Now integrated into Château Bélair-Monange. Tasted blind. Lustrous dark garnet. High-toned cassis nose. Sleek. Almost tastes like Cabernet. Vigorous and fresh. Still youthful. Long. (JR)
