Château de Bel-Air 2005 Red (Lalande de Pomerol)
- Online Exclusive
- $40
This is the first vintage under its new owner, the American Stephen Adams. It’s relatively soft, with black currant fruits, given a delicious lift by some tight tannins. The acidity gives freshness, a zap to the dry, firm finish.

Château de Bel-Air 2006 Red (Lalande de Pomerol)
- Online Exclusive
- $30
A rich Merlot-driven wine, smoothly polished by new wood. Flavors of mint mingle with sweet tannins and black berry fruits. There is a fine, smoky edge as well to this wine, which would certainly benefit from 3–4 years’ aging.

Château de Bel-Air 2007 Red (Lalande de Pomerol)
- Online Exclusive
- $30
A wine that suffers from high toast and not enough fruit weight. In time, it should settle down, but it is always going to be a wine that is on the lean side.
