Product detailed description
An exceptional wine crafted from grapes sourced from old vineyards, which impart complexity and intensity. The 2008 vintage offers an elegant expression with a deep ruby color and an aromatic profile full of ripe black fruits, plums, licorice, and delicate notes of spices and tobacco. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, with well-balanced acidity, silky tannins, and a long, layered finish. This cuvée is ideal for pairing with bold dishes such as lamb, beef steak, or aged cheeses and has excellent potential for further aging.
Château Beauséjour Cuvée "1901" is a premium wine from vineyards planted in 1901. These old vines, with their deep roots, draw minerals from the lower layers of the soil, giving the wine exceptional complexity, intensity, and a unique terroir. The wine is a harmonious blend of 50% Merlot and 50% Cabernet Franc, providing a balance between fruity freshness and structural depth. Hand harvesting, meticulous grape selection, and aging in new oak barrels add delicate notes of vanilla, spice, and elegance. With limited production and outstanding reviews from critics, Cuvée "1901" ranks among Château Beauséjour’s most exclusive wines, ideal for cellaring and exceptional occasions.
This wine comes in a 1.5 litre bottle called Magnum. The Magnum size is perfect for a gentleman for an evening out, for example.

Château Beauséjour
Château Beauséjour is located on the left bank of the Dordogne River, atop the hill of Montagne Saint Émilion. This château perfectly exemplifies the appellation, thanks to both its impressive and prestigious building and the excellent location of its vineyard.
All vineyards are situated on the summit of Montagne hill and are laid on a limestone base with chalky-clay soil. The plots are positioned on a gentle slope with southern and southwestern exposure, allowing for natural drainage and sunlight.
The age of the grapevines (some plots were planted in 1901, 1902, 1934, and 1946) and the exceptional chalky-clay soil produce distinctive wine ideal for long aging.
