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. 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. ==History== Château Beauregard is a historic estate, established in the 11th century by the Knights Hospitallers of St. John of Jerusalem, while in terms of the initial viticulture, Beauregard was exemplified by Professor Henri Enjalbert as a prime Pomerol château from the first generation of the viticultural revolution. In the 18th century its owners were the Chaussade de Chandos family, who had a friendly rivalry with the Kanon family of Saint-Émilion's Château Canon. In 1793 the property, then with 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.〔 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.〔Berry Bros. & Rudd (Château Beauregard )〕 Several recent vintages have been made with the consultation of the oenologist Michel Rolland.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Château Beauregard」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
