- The winemaking at Château Begadan is very traditional with knowledge that has been passed down three generations
- This fantastic 2014 vintage is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon giving rich black fruits, with 40% Merlot softening the palate
- Winner of a gold medal at Brussels and awarded 89 points by The Wine Advocate
Tasting Note:
Tasting note: On the nose, there are aromas of fresh raspberry, cherry, blackcurrant, forest floor and an elegant minerality. Well-balanced and full bodied on the palate with smooth tannins and a good length. A classic Médoc that would be fantastic with a traditional Sunday Roast, mushroom risotto or a selection of aged cheeses.
