Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Excellent value and so flavourful. Aromas of plum, blueberry and blackberry, with spice and woodsmoke. Full bodied with smooth tannins, ripe, plush fruit flavours, and oak, spice and a mineral hint on the finish. Enjoy with braised beef.
Produced by M. Chapoutier, a stellar Syrah and Grenache red wine blend at a great price point under $17. Love this organic/biodynamic red blend. Belleruche 2017 is rich with ripe and juicy dark fruit flavors finishing zesty with lingering mineral and citrus zest flavours on the palate. Tannins are rounded. - Community Wine Reviews
