The first white wine from Pomerol in over 100 years could only come from Jean-Luc Thunevin and Murielle Andraud. Flowers, white peach, lemon rind and spice show easily in the nose and on the fresh, sweet, juicy and lively palate. Produced from blending 50% Sauvignon Blanc and 50% Sauvignon Gris. Good luck finding any as the production is limited to about 200 cases. Drink from 2025-2030. 91-91 Pts. 1,059 Views Tasted May 8, 2023 |

Le Clos du Beau Père (Pomerol)
Silky, fresh, soft and energetic, the cherries and plums are ripe, sweet and pure. And the earthy chocolate and spice note on the palate adds the perfect nuance that rounds things out in the supple textured finish. 90-92 Pts 3,620 Views Tasted Jun 8, 2020 |

Le Clos du Beau Père (Pomerol)
Medium bodied, slightly strict, especially for Pomerol, red plum filled wine is ready for prime time drinking with an hour or so of air. This is not a wine I'd age for long term development. 2,789 Views Tasted Mar 4, 2017 |

Le Clos du Beau Père (Pomerol)
One of the best values in Pomerol today. Produced by Jean Luc Thunevin, the wine serves up fresh, black plum, mocha, earth and espresso. Medium bodied, round and reasonably open. If you like your wines young, you can enjoy this in its youth. Else, this should be better with a few years of bottle age. 2,297 Views Tasted Feb 26, 2014 |

Le Clos du Beau Père (Pomerol)
Opulent, lush, forward style of Pomerol with perhaps a bit too much oak. But it's hard not to like all the plush, chocolate covered black cherries, fresh plums, earth and smoke. It's a good value for Pomerol, which is hard to find these days. 3,404 Views Tasted Aug 4, 2013 |
