Avis d'expert

3 / 5

Michael Broadbent

(5-1993)
First tasted in cask, April 1980: virtually opaque; good fruit, sweaty tannins; stylish even at that stage. Developed well. Still fairly deep; rich, cedary nose; full-bodied for Beychevelle, fleshy and tannic.

Château informations

Beychevelle

Chateau Beychevelle is a classic Saint-Julien exemplified in its roundness, richness of flavor, and power. The harmony of the greatest classic Medoc, which deserves to be more than fourth grand cru classé. Beychevelle also has a second wine called Amiral de Beychevelle. Beychevelle also has another Saint Julien with the pretty name of Le Château Moulin de la Rose (Estate Mill of the Rose). Chateau Beychevelle one of the purest gems of seventeenth century Medoc, but it is equalled by the exceptional quality of its wine. At full maturity after at least 10 years, the wine of Chateau Beychevelle is smooth, supple, balanced and exceptionally pleasant, in a word: classic, like the architecture and gardens of the castle.
