Chateau Beauregard 2019

-  19,5/20 Punkte VINUM: „Auch abgefüllt von immenser aromatischer Komplexität, mit seinen Noten von Blumen und Kräutern, voller Ansatz, samtene Entwicklung über erstklassiger Struktur, ellenlanges Finale; die absolute Klasse. Gehört endgültig zu den grössten Weinen der Welt.“ Trinkfenster: 2026-2050

- 19 Punkte VINUM Bordeaux Extra: Primeur 2019 (9/2020): "Absolut umwerfende, subtile, viel versprechende Aromatik, Blumen, Kräuter, Mineralität; voller Ansatz, unglaublich dichter Bau, grösste Rasse und Länge, wuchtig und sehr, sehr lang; gehört zur Spitze des Jahres. 2029-2040."

- 94 Punkte JEB DUNNUCK: „From an estate that appears to be on an upward trajectory, the 2019 Château Beauregard is a textbook 2019 with its pure, elegant, seamless style. Black cherries, darker currants, leafy herbs, and floral notes all emerge on the nose, and its wonderfully textured, medium to full-bodied, has gorgeous tannins, and a great finish. It's up with the 2018 and certainly one of the finest vintages I've tasted from this address. It will drink well for 15-20 years.“

- 94 Punkte JANE ANSON, Inside Bordeaux: „Beautiful structure and freshness, as I am finding in so many of the 2019s from Pomerol. Delivers on its En Primeur promise, the tannins remain tight but they are textured and confident, and layered through with sage, smoked earth, cigar box, fragrant rosebud, along with plenty of damson and black cherry fruit. Higher Cabernet Franc (up to 30% from 25%) and less time in barrel (18 months down from 20 months) than 2018. 50% new oak. 2027-2044.“

- 94 Punkte WINE CELLAR INSIDER, Jeff Leve: „Elegant, silky, fresh and pure, with layers of lusciously-textured, soft, vibrant cherries. The wine is earthy, refined and forward, with hints of flowers, truffle, dark chocolate and plums that come through nicely on the slightly, chalky, refined, lifted finish. This could be my favorite vintage of Beauregard ever produced. Drink from 2024-2040.“

- 94 Punkte VINOUS, Antonio Galloni: "The 2019 Beauregard is powerful, Deep and super-expressive. There´s terrific Depth and resonance here. Black cherry, Mocha, Espresso, licorice, dried Flowers and Menthol power through. This is an especially muscular style that is more About Impact than subtlety. Even so, the Progress here over the last few years is worth notin. The 2019 is big, bold and delicious. Tasted two times."

- 94 Punkte DECANTER, Jane Anson: "Dense and concentrated plum and damson on display. Some austerity right now, as you hope in a young wine. Harvest from September 12 on young vines and more than a week later for the older vines through to October 4. 3.7pH. Tasted again a few weeks later, delicious, same score. Drinking Window 2028 – 2044"

- 93 Punkte, James Suckling: „A perfumed nose of blackberries, blueberries, dark cherries, sweet praline, chocolate and dried lemons. Medium-to full-bodied with fine tannins. Beautiful sweetly spiced fruit with a fleshy texture and a flavorful, creamy finish. Drink from 2025.“

- 18,5 Punkte WEINWISSER: "70 % Merlot, 30 % Cabernet Franc, 14,5 %-vol., 38 hl/ha. Rubinrot mit aufhellendem Rand. Würziger Beginn gepaartmit einer zarten Rauchnote des Barriques, Noisetteschokolade und dominikanischer Tabak. Im zweiten Ansatz exotische Hölzer und Schattenmorellen. Am saftigen Gaumen mit cremiger Textur und herrlicher Extraktfülle, perfekt stützende Rasse verleiht dem Wein etwas Tänzerisches, zarte Adstringenz. Im aromatischen Finale ein Crescendo von roten Kirschen, Estragon und Rosenholz. Sehr gut gelungen dieses Jahr!"
