Chateau Beausejour (formally Chateau Beausejour-Duffu-Lagarosse), is a Grand Cru Classe B estate in the appellation of Saint-Emilion. The estate was brought to prominence in 1990, when Robert Parker awarded their first 100/100 point score, which occurred again in 2009 and 2010. The estate is now recognised as one of the finest in the region.
Historically, the vineyard was cultivated by the monks of the Church of St-Martin during the Middle Ages. It was alter acquired by the Geres family in the 17th Century, then later renamed to Beausejour. When the estate was passed down to Pierre-Paulin Ducarpe, he later divided it between his children – his son sold his half to Dr Fagouet who named his half Chateau Beausejour-Dr-Fagouet, and his daughter later wed Dr Duffau-Lagarrosse, and thus their half was renamed Chateau Beausejour-Duffau-Lagarrosse.
The vineyard area covers 7 hectares with 81% Merlot, 16% Cabernet Franc and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon. The Grand Vin consists of annual production of 25-30,000 bottles. They also produce a second wine, Croix de Beausejour.
