A very classical St. Julien that’s got good concentration and real elegance, too. Great black fruits on the nose with subtle oak, and the richness and dry tannins are balanced out beautifully. You could drink it now, but this will age beautifully.

The 2014 Beychevelle has a very comely, pure bouquet with heightened dark cherry, blackcurrant and wilted violet scents rendering it almost more Margaux-like than Saint Julien. The palate is medium-bodied, svelte in texture with light tannin. It is a nimble Beychevelle, light on its feet with wonderful freshness and tension towards the finish. This is a very well-crafted wine from Philippe Blanc and his team, a St. Julien that is nimble on its toes.<br/>

This has a fleshy feel, with plum and blackberry compote notes driving along thanks to a solid graphite spine. Anise and roasted apple wood accents frame the finish, which has excellent length. A textbook St.-Julien that should age well. Best from 2019 through 2030. 19,835 cases made.

Tiefes Purpur, satt in der Mitte, Granatschimmer am Rand. Schönes Cassis- und Maulbeerenbouquet, dies mit einer schönen Tiefe anzeigend. Im Gaumen mit Black Currant und eine ziemlich tolle Konzentration zeigend. Selten hat mich ein Beychevelle beim Primeur so überzeugt. Für mich ist dieser mindestens so gut wie seine eigenen Jahrgänge 2009 und 2010! 17/20 2020 – 2042
