Chateau de Beauregard-Ducourt
2019
$21.60
The Château of this historic Entre-Deux-Mers estate, bought by our family in 1973, overlooks a vineyard planted on a large south-facing slope. This particular topology, combined with the clay-limestone nature of the soil, favors natural water drainage and optimal grape ripeness.

Médaille d'or au Concours Gilbert & Gaillard 2020
« Robe grenat intense, reflets violacés. Nez mariant fruits noirs mûrs, cassis, réglisse, épices. Bouche svelte, alerte et ferme à la fois, où s'exprime une dimension végétale traditionnelle. L'ensemble affiche du caractère et conviendra à une grillade. »
