R. Parker said of this wine, "One of the most interesting and best made Cru Bourgeois in the Médoc."
The wine has a firm structure. Dense tannins and rich texture give the wine intensity and concentration as it matures. Purple, almost inky in colour with a distinct aroma of spice, tobacco and smoke. The palate has subtle notes of peat, stone fruit, currants and coffee on the finish. Aromas of spices and smoke. An excellent combination with wild boar or other game. Great value for money. A wine suitable for archiving for up to 14 years.

Château Beaumont
Château Beaumont is generally one of the most popular wines in the Cru Bourgeois category. Located near the Gironde between Margaux and Saint-Julien, it bears the name of Count Beaumont, a former owner of Château Latour. It has 114 hectares of vineyards that surround the château, which was built in an elegant mansard style in 1854.
In 2004, Château Beaumont received both the Agriculture Raisonnée certification (sustainable agriculture) and the 'Terra Vitis' symbolizing its emphasis on environmental and health protection. One of the emblematic Bordeaux wines, it is a classic representative of the style characteristic of Haut Médoc wines. It is a firmer, more masculine wine with a predominance of Cabernet Sauvignon, which will delight fans of Bordeaux classics.
