Château Beychevelle is a Fourth Growth Bordeaux producer situated in the Saint-Julien appellation. This beautiful estate covers 250 hectares of which about 90 are planted with vines. The 2021 vintage is a blend of 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc. On the nose, cherry blossom, woody herbs, and hedgerow create a beautiful floral profile. The palate continues the floral theme with prominent notes of rosemary, accompanied by flavours of red cherry and redcurrants. Fresh plums and well-integrated pithy tannins combine to create a harmonious, midweight core of fruit, making the wine approachable and enjoyable from a relatively young age.
94 Vinous
The 2021 Beychevelle is elegant, understated and classy. Medium in body and less overt than most recent years, the 2021 is impeccably balanced from start to finish. Dark-toned fruit, gravel, menthol, licorice, spice and new oak build nicely with a bit of time in the glass. This is incredibly harmonious.
92 Robert Parker
The 2021 Beychevelle opens in the glass with notes of sweet berry compote, plums and creamy new oak, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy palate with an unusually sweet core of fruit for the vintage, framed by plenty of chewy tannin, and concluding with a vanillin-inflected finish. - William Kelley
