Not only one of the most beautiful 18th-century châteaux, complete with formal gardens, on the Right Bank, Beauregard is also planted with the single highest proportion of Cabernet Franc in Pomerol. A mere handful of years in winemaking terms since the Cathiards arrived, bringing with them masterful technical director Fabien Teitgen, and the improvements to the wines here are impressive, to say the least. Wonderfully textured tannins, succulent fruit and an indefatigable vivacity are now features of the modern Château Beauregard.
