Saint-Julien 4ème Grand Cru Classé

The Vineyard: Chateau Beychevelle covers an area of 250 ha, of which 90 ha are planted with vines. The closeness of the Gironde river, which can be seen from the front steps of the Château, has a protective, regulating effect on the climate that is vital for the production of exceptional wines. The vineyard is planted with 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Petit Verdot. Plant density is about 8,300 to 10,000 vines/ha. On average, the vines are 30 years of age.

The Soil: The terroir consists of deep Garonne gravel from the Gunzian period, ideal for Cabernet Sauvignon.

Vinification: The wine of Chateau Beychevelle is vinified in a combination of temperature controlled, stainless steel, and concrete vats. Malolactic fermentation takes place in tank. It is then aged in an average of 50% new French oak barrels for about 18 months.
