Tasting notes
This second wine comes from a section of the Beauregard vineyard with more sand, a particularly challenging soil type in 2022, and this is enjoyable, with plenty of black tea, cloves and extremely ripe blackberry and fig fruits, a ittle drying on the finish, I suggest drinking within the next three to eight years. 40% of overall production, harvest September 5 through to 22, aged in 25% new oak, plus terra cotta jars.

The 2022 Benjamin de Beauregard emerges from the lighter soils on the property, those where gravelly/sandy soils dominate. Pretty floral notes and bright fruit are front and center. This delicate, vibrant Pomerol is quite the charmer. The blend is 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc.
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.
