Château Beauséjour is a Premier Grand Cru Classé estate in Saint-Emilion now run by the eighth generation of the Duffau-Lagarosse family. With just 6.5ha of vineyards, the terroir is ideally suited to Merlot (accounting for over 80% of the plantings) and, whilst modern examples are exotic, lavish and deeply complex, older vintages are more elegant and develop remarkable truffley complexity.

Vinous
Medium-deep ruby. Cassis and blackberry liqueur on the nose. Violet and dark berry fruit offers good intensity but shows a distinctly hard edge (a second sample also betrayed a slight metallic quality). Finishes with slightly tough tannins and some unresolved acids.Stephen Tanzer1st May 2000
