Tasting Notes
The 2022 Château Beau-Séjour Bécot Saint-Emilion Premier Grand Cru, has a bouquet that is expressive and intense, revealing notes of ripe red fruits (raspberry, black cherry) mingled with woody and vanilla nuances, with a delicate touch of spices (cinnamon, clove). The oak is fine and well integrated, reflecting perfectly controlled barrel aging. On the palate, this wine is both full-bodied and silky. The tannins are well-integrated, offering a beautiful texture and long aromatic persistence. The ripe fruit flavours harmonize with slightly toasted and spicy notes. The finish is racy, marked by a lovely freshness and an elegant minerality, characteristic of its limestone terroir. Lanigan & Edwards
Blend: 76% Merlot, 22% Cabernet Franc, 2% Cabernet Sauvignon
98 Points - Jeb Dunnuck
Tasted on multiple occasions, the 2022 Château Beau-Séjour Bécot is flat-out sensational, as well as the finest wine I’ve tasted from this château. Powerful aromatics of red, blue, and black fruits as well as crushed stone and violets define the aromatics, and it’s full-bodied, incredibly concentrated, has integrated acidity, and ultra-fine tannins. Based on 76% Merlot, 22% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon, this heavenly Saint-Emilion will benefit from just 3-5 years of bottle age and have 30 years or more of overall longevity.
