Deep purple-black in color, the 2019 Beauregard has an expressive nose of baked plums, black cherry preserves and blueberry pie with hints of spice box, wilted roses, dark chocolate and aniseed. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is filled with lively, vibrant black fruits, framed by finely grained tannins, finishing on a provocative mineral note.

The 2019 Beauregard has a tightly knit bouquet that demands coaxing from the glass: brambly black fruit, truffle and a touch of smoke emerge, albeit reluctantly. The palate is promising with dusky black fruit tinged with black tea, sea salt and sage, very briny and saline towards the finish. This is an intriguing Beauregard that is full of personality and maybe more cerebral than prior vintages Rating: 91-93 Neal Martin, www.vinous.com (Jun 2020)
Dense and concentrated plum and damson on display. Some austerity right now, as you hope in a young wine. Harvest from September 12 on young vines and more than a week later for the older vines through to October 4. 3.7pH. Tasted again a few weeks later, delicious, same score. Drinking range: 2028 - 2044 Rating: 94 Jane Anson, Decanter (Jun 2020)
A juicy red with walnut, chocolate and berry character. Medium to full body, chewy tannins and a flavorful finish. Rating: 92-93 James Suckling, www.jamessuckling.com (May 2020)
Château Beauregard
Unusually for Pomerol, Château Beauregard has a rather fine château built in 1795 that they proudly display on the label. Rather than having a fine view – or beau regard – the estate is named after the Beauregard family who owned it in the 17th Century. Since acquisition by Vignobles-Foncier in 1991 the whole estate has been renovated, and all the Cabernet Sauvignon replaced with more suitable Merlot, and Beauregard has been set on an upward trajectory. The recent (2014) sale of the estate to the Moulin-Houzé family offers optimism for further improvement, not least because at the same time a minority share was taken by the Caithard family whose stewardship Château Smith Haut Lafitte has yielded great results. Sitting just east of the village of Catusseau, Beauregard is practically on the border with Saint Emilion and can boast Cheval Blanc as a near neighbour. The 17.5ha of vineyard are planted with 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc with the best vines being nearer the château on the Pomerol plateau and its more typical clay soil. The average age of the vines is around 35 years.
