The Story
Our terroirs are the result of a unique and ideal combination of soil and climate. The soils are composed of Garonne gravel on gravel-clay subsoils. What's more, the proximity of the Gironde estuary, which can be admired from our gravelly hilltops, plays a vital role in protecting and regulating the climate, by tempering meteorological excesses. With Aspirant de Beychevelle, the technical team at Château Beychevelle wanted to create a wine to be drunk fresh and fruity in the Saint-Julien appellation, with a majority of Merlot to make it more supple and delicious.
