May 29, 2023 - Rich ruby red, medium bodied, aromas of forest berries and cassis. Smooth and almost satiny, and much more integrated than I remembered. Paired with grilled sea scallops and asparagus- a terrific pairing. And tasted alongside Littorai Pivot, same year; the Belle Pente more than held its own.

April 18, 2021 - Savory red and blue fruits with substantial structure (needs a good decant or more cellar time), and very nice finish. High potential here, once it starts to mellow out a bit more.
