“This Merlot-dominated wine boasts a beautiful deep color, with pronounced black fruit aromas and subtle hints of clove. On the palate, it is supple on the attack, full-bodied, round, rich, and spicy, supported by perfectly integrated tannins and lingering into a lovely, fruity, and slightly oaky finish. Remarkable balance. ” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2018)

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2020 guide) 1*Star (A high-quality, recommendable wine 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 blend is balanced 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 fine range of characterful wines.

About the wine:
This Merlot-dominant wine boasts a beautiful dark color and displays intense black fruit aromas with subtle hints of clove. On the palate, it is supple on the attack, full-bodied, round, rich, and spicy, supported by perfectly integrated tannins and culminating in a lovely, fruity, and slightly oaky finish. Remarkably well-balanced.
About the estate:
In 1858, the Ducourt family settled at Château des Combes in Ladaux, a small village southeast of Bordeaux. Under the leadership of Henri Ducourt, who took over in 1951 and has since been succeeded by his children and grandchildren, the family vineyard expanded significantly, growing to its current size of 450 hectares spread across thirteen châteaux in the Entre-deux-Mers and Saint-Émilion regions. The estate has been managed by Philippe Ducourt since 1980.
