  Bordeaux 2022 barrel samples and some additional vintages (Solliden in Stockhom): Only brief impression. Elegant. Didn't have the time to take a detailed note.
  95-96

  The bouquet of red and purple flowers stands out in the nose before you get to the sweet, red, black and blue fruits, licorice and spice. On the palate the wine is incredibly dense, sensuous, opulent and deep. Yet, with all the concentration, the wine is weightless, and effortless to drink. On the mid-palate, the waves of fruits keep coming as they coat your palate. The purity in the fruit, the energy, length, balance, and complexity is at a new level here. The seamless finish, with its ocean of berries, topped by a salty, crushed stones hits the 60 second mark. The best part of the experience is the velvet-drenched-texture that needs to be experienced. The wine blends 76% Merlot, 22% Cabernet Franc and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14.5%, ABV, 3.55 pH. The harvest took place, September 5 - September 26. Yields were 33 hectoliters per hectare. Make no mistake, this is the best wine ever produced at Beau-Sejour Becot. Drink from 2027-2060. 98-100 Pts.

  96 vvPunkte / Top Nase, dunkelfruchtig und mit viel kalkiger Mineralik, florale Noten, mit mehr Luft auch Himbeeren, sehr schöner Duft. Im Gaumen straff, präzis, mit Energie und Finesse, was für eine Präzision, was für eine Rasse, das ist pure Eleganz, grosses Kino.
