Saint Emilion Premier Grand Cru Classé B
This cru of 23,5 ha
is situated next to Ch. Ausone and has a lime soil on the plateau and a
clay-lime composition on the slopes. This cru belonged to the family
Dubois-Challon (since 1916) for a long time, until Mme Dubois-Challon donated
the chateau to Mr. Delbeck when she died in 2003. In 2008, the estate was in
hands of the Moueix family (Ch. Petrus), who added the name of the grandmother
of Christian Moueix “Monange” to Ch. Bélair. It is now the team of Moueix,
under the direction of Eric Murisasco who vinifies the wine. The cru has more
structure since, without losing elegance. Recently, the terroir of neighbour
Ch. Magdeleine, also property of Moueix, was also integrated in Ch. Bélair
Monange.
