Famille Ducourt Château de Beauregard-Ducourt - Bordeaux Red (Black Label) Bottle Preview
Famille DucourtChâteau de Beauregard-Ducourt - Bordeaux Red (Black Label)

The chateau building of this great historic Entre-Deux-Mers property, which our family bought in 1973, overlooks a vineyard that is planted on an expansive south-facing slope. This very particular topology that brings with it clay-limestone soils is favourable for natural drainage and perfectly ripe grapes.

Famille DucourtRéserve de Famille - The finest grapes of the vintage - Bordeaux Red

The original idea was to keep aside the best plot of vines from the greatest vintages and vinify those grapes separately, with the utmost care that is needed to produce a great wine. After a eighteen months of ageing, the cuvee of the year is bottled and carefully stored in our cellar. It served to dedicate a part of the production to new child or elders in the family as well as to celebrate birthdays. These bottles were also regularly enjoyed during meals, whether with family, friends or business associates. Because of growing interest in this wine, we have started to distribute it to clients visiting our estate, friends and an handful of restaurants. Over time, a group of loyal customers has been formed which helped us to bottle a little more Réserve de Famille each year that goes by.

This building, once a modest farm, was converted into a chartreuse in the 18th Century when it was acquired by a notable Swede. In 1983, this château is bought by our grandparents, Henri and Simone, and becomes their home. It’s the place where our family and friends gather together for all occasions.
