The Château Beaulieu is owned by the Comtes de Tastes, and is a reference as a Bordeaux Supérieur. This 25-acre vineyard, planted in clay and limestone soils, is situated in Salignac, 15 miles northeast of Bordeaux. It belongs to the Comted de Tastes. Well-drained south facing slopes explain the name: Beaulieu i.e. "beautiful Place". Under the enlightened management of Count Guillaume de Tastes, ably assisted by Stephane Derenoncourt, cover cropping, green harvesting and leaf pulling are the rule. Consequently, yields are very low for the appellation at less than two tons per acre, barely a bottle of wine per vine! The 20-year old vines include 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet. At 2,226 vines/acre, density is twice the average of most new world vineyards!
