Laurent de Bosredon, following university studies and his career begun in an international “industrial marketing and strategy” consulting firm, he rejoined the family estate in 1980 and has been at the helm since 1986.

Not content with the comfortable name of Château Bélingard, he wanted to bring Monbazillac and Bergerac into the rank of the greatest wines.

From the 1982 harvest, he put the methods discovered by Denis Dubourdieux, researcher at the Oenology Institute, into practice regarding the pre-fermentation maceration of white wine. Then he applied the most recent discoveries on the ageing of white and red wines on the lees. He implemented the phenolic maturity measurement process so as to determine the optimal harvest dates.
The first test rhymed with the first success.

Laurent de Bosredon affirms his convictions: "As for the white and red wines of our region, I am seeking a subtle balance between a fruity, floral and soft presence in the mouth, with an underlying tannic or tight and silky aroma. And for the Monbazillac sweet wines, I have wines that are a juxtaposition of white wine and sugar. Botrytis is a miracle. The wines of Château Bélingard from a Noble Rot harvest must be an exceptional blend of harmony and elegance, between fleshy and fresh fruit.”

In the 80s and 90s, as a result of his desire to experiment, his infinite curiosity and the astute advice of his consultants, especially that of Professor Yves Glories, Dean of the Faculty of Oenology of Bordeaux, Laurent de Bosredon never ceases to use new techniques at Château Bélingard. This work continues with Pierre Guérin, Director of the oenological laboratory of the “Inter-professional Bergerac Region Wine Counsel” (CIVRB).
