Château Beychevelle is a 250-hectare property situated within the Saint-Julien appellation. The estate offers three different red wines, which are all produced with the same level of care. This release is the 1983 vintage of its Grand Vin, a fully mature red Bordeaux showing some lovely tertiary notes.
The 1983 Beychevelle may constitute one of the hidden gems of this era. A recent bottle was not quite firing on all cylinders. The best encounter remains a double magnum direct from the château that boasted outgoing black fruit and cigar box mixed with cedar scents. The palate is well-balanced, a fairly "gutsy" Saint-Julien. What it lacks in finesse, it compensates with concentration and backbone. Tasted at home from my own cellar.
