Château Villa Bel Air 2007 White (Graves)
- Cellar Selection
- $25
Great style here, a wine that sums up the white 2007 vintage’s freshness well. On that is built a discreet structure of yellow fruits, pears, kiwi and spice from wood. Behind is the fresh herbaceous acidity of young Sémillon. Age for 2–3 years.

Château Villa Bel Air 2010 White (Graves)
- Online Exclusive
The one-third of Sémillon in this wine gives it a feeling of weight and richness. It has a touch of spice from new wood, flavors of ripe pear and pink grapefruit and a full, rounded mouthfeel.

Château Villa Bel Air 2003 Red (Graves)
- $25
Bel-Air is owned by the Cazes family of Château Lynch-Bages in Pauillac, and the pedigree of the winemaking shows. A rich, almost opulent wine, tempered with tannins. Flavors of dark black figs, herbs and wood come together harmoniously. It has a tense edge of tannin that promises aging.

Château Villa Bel Air 2008 Red (Graves)
The wine is herbal, structured, boasting the freshness of 2008. It has delicious fruit, very black currant and red berries, the acidity lacing right through. With wood aging still showing, it would benefit from three years aging.

Château Villa Bel Air 2003 White (Graves)
- $20
This property, owned by the Cazes family of Château Lynch-Bages, has produced a really stylish, fresh, full-bodied wine. The fruit is rich, with a well-judged layer of wood and flavors of ripe green plums.

Château Villa Bel Air 2007 Red (Graves)
Now aging attractively, this is a structured wine with tannins, juicy fruit and a sweeter, mature character with herbs and some dryness appearing. Drink in the next year or two.
