2021 | Château Clos Beauséjour | Pomerol | France

A characterful St-Émilion from a boutique estate — ripe, polished Right-Bank Merlot at a gentle price.

Clos Beauséjour is a small St-Émilion property making generous, Merlot-driven Right-Bank Bordeaux in a modern, approachable style. It's exactly the kind of under-the-radar St-Émilion that over-delivers for the money — plush, ripe, and ready earlier than the grand names.

Boutique Right-Bank Bordeaux with this polish is a smart buy. Ripe, well-made St-Émilion → the classified names cost multiples more → at $225 you're buying genuine Right-Bank character and craft.

• Merlot-dominant Right-Bank blend
• Saint-Émilion, Bordeaux
• Modern, polished, approachable style
• A boutique, small-production estate

Plush black cherry and plum over cocoa, cedar and sweet spice, with round, velvety tannins. Translation: generous, ripe St-Émilion that drinks beautifully now — supple fruit, gentle structure, easy charm.

A polished, boutique St-Émilion that punches above its billing. Exactly the Right-Bank bottle for a table that wants plush Merlot without the classified-growth price.
