Moderately aromatic nose, black fruit, chocolate, great power, concentrated, rich, well integrated but can still wait.

With more focus on its earthy, tobacco, herbal, cigar box and leafy secondary notes than its bright, fresh, crisp red berries, this is already entered into a slow decline. If you have a bottle, it is time to drink up.

The 1981 is significantly lighter than the 1982 or 1983. Direct, quite fruity, with a straightforward, oaky, fruity bouquet, medium body, and a healthy color. This is a smooth, soft, charming wine that already offers a pleasant drinking experience.

Château Château Beychevelle
Château Beychevelle
Château Beychevelle

Château Beychevelle watches over the Gironde at the southern tip of Saint-Julien, where the legend of the "lower your sail" gave it its name and the griffin-prowed ship its emblem. Classified growth in 1855, it draws from its deep Garonne gravels a predominantly cabernet sauvignon blend, complemented by merlot, cabernet franc and petit verdot, and owes its nickname of "the Versailles of the Médoc" to its pleasure château.

Vinified plot by plot and aged in oak barrels, the wines combine silky tannins, dark fruit and great ageing potential. The estate's landmark vintages range from 1982 and 1986 to 1989 for the great classics, then 2005 and the 2016 vintage, the first to emerge from the new plot-by-plot winery. L'Amiral de Beychevelle offers the most accessible expression of the estate.
