Borie-Manoux

Originally founded in the Médoc, the company evolved into Borie-Manoux after the second world war. Borie-Manoux is still owned by the original family.

Beau-Rivage Rouge

Borie-Manoux is unusual in that it operates as wine-trader, wine-grower and wine-distributor. It is one of the last independent family operations in Bordeaux. In its vineyards and cellars Borie-Manoux grows, bottles and ages wines.

Beau-Rivage Rouge

Grapes are selected from the most prestigious wine areas within the Bordeaux appellation. Each grape variety is pressed and vinified separatedly to bring out the individual varietal characteritics. The wines are then blended to created the great signature style of Beau-Rivage Rouge.

Beau-Rivage Rouge is composed of the classic Bordeaux varietals, primarily Cabernet Sauvigon for structure, Merlot to create a softer, fleshier wine and Cabernet Franc for colour and fruit.

Grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon; Merlot; Cabernet Franc.
