Les notes fruitées, épicées et d‘olives noires ainsi que sa touche balsamique nous flattent en bouche. On apprécie son équilibre parfait, ses tanins digestes et sa finale pleine de fraîcheur.

Our ratings

Il se présente comme un très joli vin, suave, digeste et assez subtil dans son expression.

Score: 85-87/100REVUE VINIFERA
Score: 84-86/100STEPHEN TANZER'S INTERNATIONAL WINE CELLAR

With a blend of 70% Merlot , 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon , from start to finish, there is a nice sensation of fresh, spicy cherries and polished textures with dark chocolate. Drink this easy to like wine on the young side. ( Tasted May 1, 2014)

Score: 88/100Tim Atkin, MW

A little lean but some pretty berry and dark-fruit character. Mineral, creamy acidity.

Region and vineyards

Chateau le Pin Beausoleil is grown on the best plots of the estate, one of 5 hectares near the chateau, in Saint-Vincent de Pertignas, on a beautifully situated, well drained clay-limestone plateau and on a smaller plot of 2 hectares in Merignas, in the middle of a small forest, the soil here also has a wonderful clay-limestone structure.
