貝卡塔納莊園（Chateau Boyd Cantenac）位於法國波爾多梅多克（Medoc）產區的瑪歌（Margaux）產酒村，在1855分級（1855 Classification）中被評為三級莊。貝卡塔納莊園一直堅持釀造著瑪歌產區傳統風格的優雅葡萄酒，深受眾多葡萄酒愛好者喜愛。

貝卡塔納莊園由蘇格蘭（Scotland）移民後代雅克·貝（Jacques Boyd）創建於1754年。雅克·貝結合他的姓氏和酒莊所在的村莊名卡塔納（Cantenac），將酒莊起名為貝卡塔納（Boyd Cantenac），這個名字一直沿用至今。1806年，由於聯姻，酒莊轉移到了約翰·劉易斯-布朗（John Lewis Brown）名下。經過多年經營，酒莊在1855年分級中被評為三級莊。

20世紀初，貝卡塔納莊園被著名的吉娜斯（Ginestet）家族收購。吉娜斯家族那時已擁有多個酒莊，其中包括著名的瑪歌酒莊（Chateau Margaux）。後來，吉娜斯家族遭遇經濟危機，為維持經營，貝卡塔納莊園被出售。之後在1932年，寶爵酒莊（Chateau Pouget）的莊主皮埃爾·吉耶梅（Pierre Guillemet）買下了這個莊園。自那時起，貝卡塔納莊園一直由吉耶梅（Guillemet）家族管理，現已歷經四代人，現任莊主及主釀酒師為呂西安·吉耶梅（Lucien Guillemet）。

貝卡塔納莊園的主要酒款包括一款正牌酒——Chateau Boyd Cantenac三款副牌酒——Jacques Boyd、La Croix de Boyd-Cantenac、Josephine de Boyd。其中酒莊的正牌酒曾出現在日本人氣漫畫《神之水滴》（The Drops of God）中：主人公神咲雫在尋找“神之水滴”的過程中，發現了許多極具個性的優質葡萄酒。貝卡塔納莊園紅葡萄酒便是其中之一，它被比喻成“假面舞會”。神咲雫將其香氣描述為“飄香煙氣，還有無法名狀的泥土氣息，那是飽含了廣闊庭院中露水的大地芳香”。酒莊的副牌酒是由葡萄園內較為年輕的葡萄藤所產葡萄釀制而成，比正牌酒更為輕盈，果味也更為明顯，無需多年的陳放便能達到適飲期。

Aromas of minerals, currants and berries follow through to a full body, with juicy fruit and a long finish. Lovely depth of fruit and mouthfeel to this. Top Boyd for a long time. Better in 2017.

Features a solid core of steeped plum and currant fruit, with singed apple wood stitching, a tangy mineral backdrop and finely beaded acidity that carries the finish.

The 2010 Boyd-Cantenac feels a little muddle on the nose compared to its peers, although it improves with aeration to reveal lovely raspberry, cedar and tea leaf aromas.The more you nose this wine, the more you like it. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, a rather incongruous minty note on the entry. It feels like it wants to impress and it does to a certain extent, though I would like more terroir expression and tension on the finish. That might come with time.

Deep garnet colored, the 2010 Boyd-Cantenac features pronounced notions of black cherries, stewed plums and crème de cassis with hints of sautéed herbs and tobacco. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is just a little lean in the middle with a chewy texture and stewed tea finish.
