Benjamin De Beauregard

The property was founded in 1677 by Bernard Beauregard, though it only became a full-scale wine producer in the 1800s. Beauregard is situated at the entrance to the appellation and covers an area of 17.5 hectares (43 acres), making it one of the largest Pomerol estates. Its grape composition is 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc. The vines have reached an average grand old age of 35 years, while every new plantation is planted at the very high density of 9,200 vines per hectare. 

Second Wine of Château Beauregard, Benjamin de Beauregard, is made from a strict selection of plots on sandier soils. It benefits from the same high-performing winemaking facilities as the First Wine; however, the winemaking is carefully adapted to include moderate extraction and short vatting periods. The ageing process is shorter and is carried out in no more than 30% new oak.

Luxurious dark color. Pleasant aromas with hints of cherries, plums, truffles, liquorice and herbal notes. The wine has a wonderful velvety, lush flavor average completeness with creamy blackberry hues, abundant soft tannins and a pleasant aftertaste.
