In 1824, the vineyard of Château Beaumont was born and thirty years later, the magnificent Château was built in Renaissance style. Various illustrious owners succeeded one another, making Beaumont one of the leading “Crus Bourgeois Supérieurs” in the Médoc. Under the supervision of Philippe Blanc (Ch. Beychevelle), Château Beaumont has taken off in terms of quality since 1986 and continues to consolidate its position as one of the appellation’s best.

Ch. Beaumont wines are generally characterized by their suppleness, a feminine structure that is often silky. The tannins are melted and rarely aggressive. All this contributes to producing a wine full of charm and finesse.
