Château Beychevelle 2009 Barrel sample Red (Saint-Julien)

93-95 Barrel sample. Great swathes of blackcurrant fruits here, the tannins ripe and complex, but well integrated into the fresh fruits. Fine balance.

Château Beychevelle 2010 Barrel sample Red (Saint-Julien)
- Online Exclusive
93-95 A strongly tannic wine, powered by a dry core that pushes through the sweet fruit. Great weight as well as tension between the acidity and the dark heart of the wine.

Château Beychevelle 2011 Barrel Sample Red (Saint-Julien)
- Online Exclusive
92-94. Barrel sample. A very firm and closed wine, it shows its tannins rather than its fruit. With its weight, this dark wine should become rounded with age.

Château Beychevelle 2003 Red (Saint-Julien)
- $35
The most beautifully situated chateau, with its great view of the Gironde estuary, Beychevelle is another of those Médoc estates that has found top form after a fallow period in the 1980s and early ’90s. The wine’s generosity, sweetness and fruit is balanced with the carefully crafted structure of wood that underpins it all. Imported by Diageo Chateau & Estates.

Château Beychevelle 2005 Red (Saint-Julien)
Very much in an elegant style, this wine shows soft, almost velvet tannins supporting the ripe fruit. It has richness, a round character masking the dense texture, and setting off the clean red berry fruits and fresh acidity.

Château Beychevelle 2001 Red (Saint-Julien)
- Online Exclusive
- $70
A harmonious balanced wine, showing fine, fresh acidity. The tannins have closed in somewhat, but you can taste the chocolate, and the sweet character of the ripe fruit. At the end, the acidity gives a fine lift.

Château Beychevelle 2009 Red (Saint-Julien)
- $95
An opulent, ripe wine from the ever-improving Beychevelle. It is rounded with new wood flavors along with just the right amount of tannin. Deceptively soft, with a solid, dry character behind the fruit.
