2003 Château Beychevelle

Community Tasting Note

92 Points

Wednesday, March 22, 2023 - Had this at a business lunch, so not a completely focused tasting … but it was superbly aromatic, true Beychevelle, all ST Julien elegance and structure and grassiness. But gentle rounded and absolutely firing on all cylinders.

Though at the finish, it was very slightly showing some firmness, not bitter, but hinting at some drying. Presumably not getting completely rid of the heat effects of the vintage. So all in all a very pleasant wine, i would not hesitate too long to drink, just to be sure to avoid potential drying out.
