The 2021 Château Beauséjour Côtes de Bourg is an elegant Right Bank Bordeaux crafted predominantly from Merlot, complemented by Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec. Grown on the clay and limestone slopes of the Côtes de Bourg, it showcases ripe fruit, supple tannins and refined structure, reflecting the charm and value of this historic appellation. The nose is expressive and inviting, revealing aromas of black cherry, blackberry and ripe plum, complemented by notes of violet, cedar, sweet spice and subtle cocoa.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with fine, velvety tannins, fresh natural acidity and a smooth, rounded texture, delivering flavours of blackcurrant, dark cherry and plum layered with hints of liquorice, tobacco leaf, dark chocolate and gentle mineral complexity. The finish is long, balanced and beautifully refined, combining generous fruit with classic Bordeaux elegance.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Côtes de Bourg for customers seeking a polished, approachable Right Bank Bordeaux with impressive value and versatility. Enjoy now after a short decant or cellar confidently over the next 6–10 years. Ideal with roast lamb, grilled steaks, duck confit, slow-cooked beef or mature hard cheeses.
