Wine Review: Chateau Beaumont Haut-Medoc 2019

As part of his exploration of Bordeaux's 2019 vintage, our Wine Director, David Allen MW tastes a half bottle of Chateau Beaumont Haut-Medoc 2019. Chateau Beaumont is a historic estate in the Haut-Medoc, known for its red wine based on Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. It is one of the largest of all properties in Bordeaux in terms of vineyard size, covering 113 hectares (279 acres) of land. Viticulture at Chateau Beaumont dates back to 1824. In 1849, it passed into the hands of the Bonnin brothers, who constructed the imposing château in the Renaissance mansard style. Since 1986, Beaumont has been owned by the Grands Millésimes de France group, which is now a joint venture between Suntory and Castel Frères. The estate is located at Cussac between the communes of Margaux and Saint-Julien, on a single plot with deep sandy gravel soils. A little more than half of plantings are Cabernet Sauvignon, with the rest comprising Merlot with a small amount of Petit Verdot. The typical blend of the finished wine is broadly similar. In the winery, fermentation takes place in large temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. The grand vin spends 12-14 months aging in barrel prior to bottling.
