From a blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cab Franc the 2011 Beauregard has lovely sweet fruit and is full of life. Very nice.

Tasted blind. Dark ruby. A bit skinny really. Not trying. (JR)
Ripe and toasty and something slightly floral, slightly volatile dried fruit. Firm, chewy but smooth. A touch sour on the finish. (JH)
Beauregard’s 2011 reveals dusty, earthy aromas intermixed with hints of crushed rocks and red fruits. It is medium-bodied, somewhat disjointed and finishes with a hint of dilution. Drink it over the next 5-6 years.
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.
