Description
Château Beychevelle is located at the beginning of the commune of the same name and is the first château you see when you drive into the commune. The castle is magnificent, and was once called the "Versailles du Médoc". In Saint Julien, Beychevelle lived a high-ranking admiral. All ships entering the Gironde had to salute, and did so by lowering their sails "baisser les Voiles". The name "Beychevelle" is said to be derived from this. Since 2011, the castle has changed owners. It is now in the hands of Pierre Castel (of the well-known négociant trader in Bordeaux and elsewhere in France) and of the Japanese group Suntory (also owner of Ch. Lagrange).
Château Beychevelle has the elegance and finesse of the best terroirs of Saint Julien. Graceful and complex, with an enormous aromatic richness, Château Beychevelle is made from the best plots in the undergoes a rigorous selection process and reveals its true nature after about ten years and can be kept for decades, depending on the vintage.
Aromas of raspberry, currant, pencil shavings and sweet spices open the 2019 Beychevelle, a medium to full-bodied, supple and enveloping wine with a generous core of fruit, ripe tannins and juicy acidity, finishing with a broad finish. This is an approachable, expressive Saint-Julien that will offer a wide drinking window. This is a 1.5-liter magnum
FACT: The wine is in our conditioned Wine Warehouse and if you come to pick up the wine you will often also receive a nice discount. You will see your discount immediately when you choose 'Pick up' on the checkout page. We are located in Dordrecht with plenty of parking. Click here for our address.

Aromas of raspberries, currants, pencil shavings and sweet spices introduce the 2019 Beychevelle, a medium to full-bodied, supple and enveloping wine that's fleshy and seamless, with a generous core of fruit, ripe tannins and succulent acids, concluding with an expansive finish. This is an open-knit, demonstrative Saint-Julien that will offer a broad drinking window.
Château Beychevelle is a large landowner, at 250 hectares, but of these only 90 are planted to vines and only 78 located within the Saint-Julien appellation (the rest are in neighboring Cussac). Around 60% of those holdings are located on the plateau between Branaire-Ducru and Ducru-Beaucaillou, and the percentage of Merlot is quite elevated at 40%—though it's declining, as replanting here favors Cabernet Sauvignon. Since 2008, viticulture has become much less dependent on chemicals. The grand vin itself represents just over half of the production, and in the last decade or so, it has become a touch richer and more structured in style, while retaining the fleshy, charming style that has won the estate so many admirers.

Gorgeous aromas of currants, crushed stones, blackberries and flowers. Full-bodied with refined tannins that are long and very polished. Creamy texture. It goes on for minutes. Lovely energy and sophistication to this. Try after 2026.

From: Bordeaux 2019: The Southwold Tasting (Feb 2023)
The 2019 Beychevelle has a very appealing, quite intellectual, pencil box and earthy nose that unfurls in the glass, taut and focused, the oak supremely well integrated. The palate is beautifully balanced with finely-sculpted tannins, wonderful balance, fresh and mineral-driven with a precise and complex finish. Superb sapidity, this is top notch with a long future ahead. Time to raise my score. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting.
