Red Pineau 10 years Beaulon

Presentation of the domain:

In 1965 Christian Thomas acquired the Chateau and it continues as a family business today. He undertook the extension of the vineyards. Chateau de Beaulon Cognac and Pineau des Charentes, under the firm passionate control of Christian Thomas for more than forty years, have become synonymous with exceptional quality, be it at home or abroad.

The Cognac and Pineau are produced from a single vineyard, unique in the Charente region and registered in the cadastral register under the Beaulon estate, as such guaranteeing the authenticity of the chateau. 

Contrary to modern trends, Beaulon has remained faithful to the region’s traditional 16th century vine stocks : Folle Blanche, Colombard and Montils. Distillation on light lees in small copper pot stills. Very long ageing in Limousin or Tronçais oak barrels, generally two to three times longer than legally required and … even longer for the rarer quality products.

Presentation of the vintage:

Powerful and luxurious with complex aromas of black cherry, plum background of cassis, cinnamon, mocha and cocoa, flavors of rich complexity, velvety.
