Chateau Beaumont Haut Medoc 2017

Château Beaumont sits in the Haut Médoc appellation on the Left Bank of Bordeaux, in the commune of Cussac. The estate covers about 114 hectares on classic Médoc terroir. Since 2004 its vineyards have been managed under the environmentally friendly Terra Vitis guidelines, reflecting a sustainable viticulture approach.

The 2017 vintage of Château Beaumont is a Bordeaux blend of approximately 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot with small amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Grapes are harvested then vinified in temperature controlled stainless steel vats and matured for roughly 12–14months in French oak (about one third new barrels). The wine reveals aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar and subtle spice, with firm yet supple tannins and a structured, medium to full body. It pairs especially well with roast lamb, beef, game dishes, grilled meats or mature cheeses.
