Deep; wonderfully ripe fruit and flesh. Tannin not particularly noticeable. Very drinkable now.

I hoped to be more impressed with this wine given the vintage and the wine's reputation but it fell short of being great. It is a very good wine with classic St Julien flavours and aged leather and mushroom characters coming through.

Dark ruby color. Lots of earth, berry and leather aromas. Full-bodied, with chocolate, berry and earth flavors. Velvety tannins. Delicious, funky Beychevelle.

Château Beychevelle

Château Beychevelle is one of the most emblematic estates of the Saint-Julien appellation, on the left bank of Bordeaux. Classified as a Fourth Grand Cru Classé in 1855, it has embodied for several centuries a singular style, at once elegant, balanced and profoundly Médocain. Its name, derived from the legend of "Baisse-Voile" (Lower the Sail), directly refers to its majestic location on the banks of the Gironde and its historical role in Bordeaux river trade.

The vineyard of Château Beychevelle extends over approximately 90 hectares, planted predominantly with Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Merlot, Cabernet Franc and a small proportion of Petit Verdot. The deep gravel soils, typical of Saint-Julien, ensure optimal drainage and promote regular maturation, contributing to the qualitative consistency of the cru.

The wines of Beychevelle are distinguished by their harmony, silky texture and aromatic finesse, combining black fruits, spicy notes and a subtly oaked touch. Capable of evolving gracefully over several decades, they rank among the classic references of the Médoc. Vintages such as Château Beychevelle 1947, Château Beychevelle 1967, Château Beychevelle 1989, Château Beychevelle 1983, Château Beychevelle 1986, Château Beychevelle 2005, perfectly illustrate the consistency and ageing potential of this great wine.
