An attractive, medium-bodied St.-Julien with plenty of blueberry character, plus touches of cassis and mint and a long, moderately dry finish that gives it a lot of appeal. Drink or hold

Château Beychevelle
Located in the Saint-Julien region of Bordeaux, this Classed Growth, Château Beychevelle has one of the most recognizable labels in all of Médoc. Featuring an estuary boat, the labels show a sail lowered in salute to the estates former owner, the Duc d’Epernon, an Admiral of France. Better known as the “Dragon Boat” wine, it has become one of the most sought after wines around the world, especially in China. Now a sizable 90-hectare property, its vineyards are dedicated to Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and a small amount of Petit Verdot growth. More recently, they have heavily invested into the renovation of their wine making facilities, cellars, and visitor center. Today the beautiful winery, designed by Arnaud Boulain and Atelier BPM stands with glass walls allowing guests to fully partake in the winemaking process.
