Pierre Bernault must have put a bunch of peonies, raspberries and blackcurrants into the vats of the 2010 vintage, otherwise it is impossible. 70% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc.
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.
