Description

The balance and character of a Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé

The estate

Château Beauséjour has been recognised since the very beginning of the Saint-Émilion classification. A family property since 1847, this Premier Grand Cru Classé of the famous appellation on Bordeaux's right bank was acquired in April 2021 by the Courtin-Clarins family in association with Joséphine Duffau-Lagarosse.

The vineyard

Château Beauséjour is a Saint-Émilion wine that stem from 6.80 hectares of land, with 6.24 hectares in production. The old vines, which are on average 45 years old, are planted on a mosaic of terroirs consisting of clay-limestone soils over asteriated limestone. Rooted on the hillside of the medieval town, the vineyards are cultivated using traditional methods, usually by hand.

The vintage

The summer season was marked by drought and heat waves from June onwards. Harvesting began on 6 September. The Merlot was harvested between 6 and 9 September. The Cabernet Franc was harvested on 23 September. The 2022 vintage is the first to be entirely designed by the new team at Château Beauséjour.

Winemaking and ageing

Harvests were done by hand. Ageing for 14 months in barrels (68% new barrels).

Blend
Château Beauséjour 2022 is a blend of Merlot (69%) and Cabernet Franc (31%).
