Dark and winey, with tobacco, bittersweet cocoa and tar notes wrapped around a core of black currant and fig fruit. Grippy from start to finish, but showing cut and drive, this is a very grounded Pomerol that will need some time to unwind. Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2022 through 2040. 1,916 cases made.

A fine-tannined, pretty red with some chocolate powder and hazelnuts to the berries and wet earth. Medium to full body. Integrated tannins. Creamy and refined with lovely texture. Showing newly found finesse and length. Drink or hold.

An extremely unusual blend because of the frost that really hammered the Merlot. This is perhaps a little overly tight and austere, but they have carefully controlled the extraction and there is a lovely violet edge to the nose that becomes clear in the glass, along with spice and chocolate shavings. A sculpted, subtle feel overall, doesn't jump out of the glass but definitely has its place.

Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, the 2017 Beauregard is slightly muted to begin, offering up subtle scents of warm blueberries, stewed plums and cherry preserves plus touches of dried roses, black tea and cigar box. Medium-bodied, the palate has a lovely soft texture and plenty of expressive red and black fruits, finishing long and perfumed.

The 2017 Beauregard is a dark, powerful wine. Black fruit, chocolate, spice, espresso, new oak and licorice give the 2017 an impression of virile power that comes through in the wine's rich, unctuous feel as well. There is not a lot of subtlety here, but the 2017 is nicely balanced in this style. I would prefer to drink it over the near to medium term.

This estate has turned out a beautiful, pleasure-bent 2017 that shines in the vintage. Lots of blackcurrants, chocolate, and roasted herbs notes define the bouquet and it hits the palate with a wealth of fruit, medium to full body, ripe tannins, and outstanding overall balance and charm. It drops off slightly on the finish, yet it's nevertheless a delicious, beautiful Pomerol. Drink it over the coming 10-15 years.

Varietal: Red Bordeaux

The Bordeaux region of France consistently enjoys the reputation of being the finest region for wine making in the world. But what is it that makes this area around the Gironde river so special? The secret lies in their ancient and careful blend of no more than six high quality, flavorful and unique grape varietals. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Carménere are all permitted for usage in the production of Bordeaux wines, and the winery carefully considers how to balance the fine points of one varietal against another. Most commonly, Cabernet Sauvignon is used as the main grape varietal, usually with vintners making wines containing upwards of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon grape juices. This varietal lends its big, spicy, fruity flavors and astringent, tannin-heavy character to the mix. Normally, this strong varietal is then tempered and rounded by Merlot, a fleshy, fruity and far lighter bodied grape, containing far fewer tannins and a much brighter flavor The blended wines are normally left to age in oak, where they can continue to work together and produce their wonderful results.

Region: Bordeaux

Although most commonly associated with their superb blended red wines, the world-famous region of Bordeaux in France is responsible for a relatively wide array of wines, ranging from the sweet and viscous white wines of Sauternes, to the dry and acidic single variety white wines found all over the region. However, it is the red wines which regularly make the wine world's headlines, and have historically been regarded as the finest on earth. The secret to the region's success is the fact that the warm and humid climate, coupled with mineral rich clay and gravel based soils produces grapes of excellent quality. Wineries in this region have spent hundreds of years mastering the art of blending and oak aging in order to get the best results from each grape, and remain the envy of the world to this day.

Country: France

Year in, year out, France enjoys its prestigious reputation as the producer of the finest wines in the world. With a wine making history which spans several thousand years and owes its expertise to the Romans, it comes as little surprise that this most highly esteemed of the Old World wine countries continues to impress and enchant both novices and experts to this day. Despite the rise in quality of wines from neighboring European countries, not to mention the New World, the French wine industry continues to boom, with up to eight billion bottles being produced in recent years. However, France prides itself on always putting quality before quantity, and the wide range in fine produce is a testament to the dedication and knowledge of the wineries across the country. Indeed, from rich and complex reds to light and aromatic white wines, French wines are as varied and interesting as they are enjoyable to drink, making this country a firm favorite for wine lovers across the globe.
