“We are here at Henri Ducourt’s estate, 13 hectares centered around an 18th-century Carthusian monastery surrounded by a large rose garden featuring more than two thousand varieties. Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon have given rise to this wine, which offers notes of red fruit with subtle woody nuances; it is supple with good body on the palate. ” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2015)

Bettane & Desseauve

Rated estate (2020 guide) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))

About the estate:

This beautiful 380-hectare estate is one of the largest in the Bordeaux appellation. It includes Château Larroque, located south of Langon on a beautiful clay-gravel terroir, with a classic blend of grape varieties (45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, and 25% Cabernet Franc), Château de Beauregard-Ducourt, located south of Targon, whose vineyard is evenly divided between Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, as well as Châteaux La Rose du Pin and d’Haurets. The wines are of consistent quality and great classicism: powerful reds, highly aromatic, lively, and refreshing whites, and delicious rosés. A truly beautiful range full of character.
