This article is about the Pomerol winery. For the castles, see Château de Beauregard. The 2005 Château Beauregard label depicting the château constructed in 1795-97. Château Beauregard is a Bordeaux wine estate from the appellation Pomerol. The winery is located on the Right Bank of the Bordeaux wine region, in the commune of Pomerol in the department Gironde. As all wine produced in this appellation, Château Beauregard is unclassified but the estate is estimated among the great growths of the region.[1] Placed on the eastern outskirts of Pomerol and the hamlet Catusseau near Saint-Émilion, the estate lies in a cluster with Château Petit-Village, Vieux Château Certan and Château La Conseillante. The estate also produces a second wine, Le Benjamin de Beauregard.

In 1793 the property, then with 6.3 hectares (16 acres) under vine, was sold to Bonaventure Berthomeiu, a wealthy figure of Saint-Émilion. The present château was constructed in 1795-97, with two towers and a moat it is an unusually glamorous structure for the Pomerol district.[3] After becoming one of the region's leading crus in the 19th century, the estate was bought by the Clauzel family in 1920. Since 1991 Beauregard is owned by Crédit Foncière, while the estate is managed by Vincent Priou.[4] Several recent vintages have been made with the consultation of the oenologist Michel Rolland.[5] Production The vineyard area extends 17.5 hectares (43 acres), with a grape variety distribution of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc.[5] Of the Grand vin Château Beauregard there is annually produced 50,000 to 65,000 bottles, and of the second wine Le Benjamin de Beauregard (formerly Domaine des Douves[3]) there is typically produced 25,000 to 35,000 bottles. Mille-Fleurs In 1932 the architectural firm of Henry M. Polhemus and Lewis Augustus Coffin designed and built a replica of the château on the expansive Gould-Guggenheim estate in Port Washington, Long Island, NY, for Mrs Daniel Guggenheim named "Mille-Fleurs"; it still stands in a Nassau County park.[6] References Château Beauregard technical file Footnotes ^ Lichine, Alexis (1967).
