Basic Info

Marie-Laure and Jacques Perromat are the sixth generation to make wine at Château Beauregard Ducasse, as the family has been in possession of this venerable château since 1850. Located in the village of Mazères in the southernmost rural section of the Graves region on a bed of gravel (from which the name Graves is derived), this 37 acre estate produces exceptional white and red Graves. The vineyard is primarily located on gravely terraces with a limestone subsoil. The assemblage remains fairly consistent at 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvigon and 10% Cabernet Franc.
