From vines situated between the Gironde River, the estate lends it’s name to it’s “beautiful pebbles” (“beaux cailloux” in French) due to their high quartz content. A blend of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 44% Merlot Noir and 3% Petit Verdot, the grapes are aged in 60% new Bordeaux Oak barrels for twelve months before developing a dense violet colour and a full-bodied palate.
Tasting Notes:
“Unwinding in the glass with aromas of dark berries, plums, violets and licorice, the 2020 La Croix de Beaucaillou is medium to full-bodied, supple and fleshy, with a pure core of perfumed fruit and a charming, precise profile.” Score: 91, William Kelley for Robert Parker, RobertParker.com, April 2023
Pairing Suggestions:
Pairs well with beef, lamb and game.
