Last bottle. Crimson red, nose of spicy cassis, lots of earth tones, red currants. Medium to full bodied, some rusticity in this wine typical of Beychevelle pré modern era, finishes tannic and long despite two hours in decanter. Still young.

Beautiful. Opened 3 hrs before drinking and not decanted. Proper grown-up St Julien. Softer tobacco and gentle fruit. Some spice. Absolutely superb and the best bottle from this case , so far.

Truly amazing and needs a couple of hours or more in the decanter. So young for a 2000. Dark ruby red, lots of earth, graphite, leather, black currants and peppery cassis fully reflected on the palate. Medium to full bodied, the finish is long with ground coffee and soft tannins.

Lovely mature Beychevelle drinking very well but with many years ahead of it. See previous notes simply delicious.
