Mid-crimson. Horrid, overripe, overdone nose. Treacly sweet and awkward tannins. Out of balance. Hot finish. (JR)

This is an excellent wine for the vintage. This consumer-friendly Pomerol exhibits a deep ruby color along with a sweet nose of cola, mocha, cherry jam, and new oak. It is dense and round, with an excellent texture, a big succulent mid-palate, and long, lightly tannic finish. It should be accessible early. Anticipated maturity: 2003-2014.
Delicate and delicious. Aromas of smoke, berry and tobacco. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins and a subtle berry, green tobacco finish. Best after 2002. 4,415 cases made. James Suckling, Wine Spectator 2002

About the producer
Named after its founder, Bernard Beauregard, this property is one of few Pomerol addresses to have an actual château – here a stately 18th-century construction designed by the man behind Bordeaux’s Grand Théâtre.
