2023 Château Beau-Séjour Bécot

St. Émilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend more

5/1/2024 - vvWine.ch wrote: 96 points

95-97 Punkte. Tiefdunkel und tiefgründig; steinig, rote Frucht, untermalt von kreidiger Mineralik; straffer Gaumen, delikate Frucht, federleicht und doch mit Konzentration, viel Dynamik; frisch, salin und würzig im Abgang auf Sauerkirschen. Ein tänzerischer Beau-Séjour Becot! (En Primeur Tasting April 2024, 14 Alkohol)

Noir fruit, salumi, milk chocolate, flower shop and wet earth. Long and panoramic, with layered, silky tannins. Full body with a backend that is polished. Stunning fruit and not in a dumb phase at all; however, this could definitely go the distance. A pure joy. Drink 2026 -.

Still on the young side, this wine really opened up after about 10 hours of air in the decanter.

Great balance between primary, secondary and tertiary flavors!
Medium ruby
On the nose the intensity is medium + with aromas of fresh and cooked blackberries, black and red plums, black cherries, tobacco, graphite, cedar, dried spices. Light but delicious forest floor, earthy.
On the palate the wine is dry with medium + acidity and tannins. The tannins were well integrated and present. H alcohol and medium + body. The flavor intensity is medium + and the finish is long.
The quality is very good +. Perfect drinking window now but will age much further. I really like this wine!

Bouteille et bouchon en parfait état.
Ouvert 4 heures avant puis dégusté durant 3 heures.
Grosse variété d’arômes, cerises, cassis, épices douces, coco, fumée.
La bouche est structurée avec pas mal de tanins mais bien équilibrée, soyeuse et longue.
À 1/4 de siècle, le vin est totalement à son apogée et devrait y rester quelques années encore.
Excellent.

Very tight nose, even after 45 in the glass. Light to medium body, hints of minerals, tart blackberry, iodine and graphite. Tannins aren’t really woven into the rest of the wine. Lacks balance. I usually prefer Bordeaux, but admit that my guests and I preferred a 2016 Hess Selection Napa Cab (PNP) over this wine.
I see lot’s of suggestions to hold and wait, we’ll see…

Second time with this and I'm still finding it a little compact and closed in on itself and harder to get a read on than usual. Structurally it has that clenched bite and piercing, snappy fruit in both red and black tones that make up the essential ingredients of what I love about the Becot style. There is some tight-grained cedar from the oak but the glossy fruit mostly smooths it over. Whatever else it's got is still packed into the core.

50 acre vineyard, Limestone plateau, 70% Merlot, 24% Cabernet Franc, and 6% Cabernet Sauvignon. 14% natural alcohol.

Nose: slightly hot on the nose, cedar, berries, fresh, sweetness, cloves

Silky smooth, good structure, long and chewy finish, very nice.
Black cherry, blueberry, currant, plum, drinking nicely and should continue to improve for the next 10 years.

A nose you can sit and savor featuring black cherry compote, subtle oak, mulling spice, and a hint of cassis or fig.

Front palate of blackberry, oak, and tobacco. Velvety tannins with a touch of grip. Black cherry and burnt vanilla on the edges. Finish has more oak, with hints of licorice and cassis or rich plum.

Earthy full bodied wine. Sweet with definate dark fruit and spice with those oaky and earthy notes you get from so many great Saint Emilions.

Second bottle of a case of six bought on auction two years ago. Even better than last bottle. Dark fruit, plum, blackberry, boysenberry, dark cherry, earth, chocolate, cocoa, tobacco, and spices, with good, medium-level acidity, fine, well integrated tannin, and very good length. Medium-bodied and well-balanced, and light on its feet. Great with food (in our case herb-marinated escalope of turkey). Better on day one than on day two. In a good place; drink now.

Very nice and balanced. Good acidity, smooth tannins, sweet berries and spices. The oak and tannins could integrate a bit more. The palate is definitely on the light side. For me, I would drink now and store other vintages. Nice but very 2017ish, 90.

3/8/2024 - hrazdiiv Likes this wine: 91 points

I liked this but wasn’t blown away. First time trying this chateau and I have to agree with the plurality of previous reviews that this just lacks a bit of something. Still has a nice medium-dark purple red color. The initial nose was a little soft, with some very fruit forward notes of cassis, black currant and cherries. Not a lot of tannin here, very much sanded down. In the first 30 minutes of drinking (undecanted) I almost would’ve guessed California cab. After an a hour or so it developed a bit of secondary aroma with tobacco, cedar and a bit wet earth balancing out the fruit and elevated the wine a point or so in my opinion. Honestly not sure this rises to the level of other Grand Cru Classe B but it’s a contender. Good, just not amazing - but not bad for the price.

Licorice, cherries, flowers, cocoa, oceanic nuances, and and hint of cigar wrapper aromas crowd into the perfume. On the palate, the wine expresses purity, energy, grace and lift. The tannins are silky, the character is refined, relaxed, and most importantly, there is a gorgeous sense of purity in the red fruits that you sense in the mid-palate, all the way through to the elegant, long, energetic, sensual finish. The wine blends 85% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon. This is a major success for the vintage. Drink from 2025-2050.

Decanted by good friend for 12 hrs prior to serving. Deep dense maroon and ruby color. Herbal notes (spearmint and tomato?), cherry, old leather on the nose. Black cherry, herbal tones, earth, and leather on the palate with 35 sec finish. Strong acidity that begs for food pairing, which definitely enhanced both food (short rib pasta) and wine. Still felt young but beautifully made and a nice birthday treat.

The aroma is intense. Dark fruit, some kind of earthiness and smokiness layering. On the palate, acidity is super high, tannin is fine. I can feel the alcohol 14%, but it’s not intruding. I think this has a lot of potential but it’s not that fun to drink.

Took to La Maison w the Caldwell's. It was incredibly young. After being opened for over an hour or so it started to show its characteristics. The merlot based wine was elegant with blue berry, violet. Way to young.
