Persoonlijke gegevens
The Beau-Séjour Bécot bursts from the glass with aromas of cassis, wild berries, raw cocoa, spices, and fertile earth. This medium- to full-bodied wine is generous and fleshy, deep and layered, with a rich mid-palate supported by juicy acidity and powdery tannins. Beau-Séjour Bécot is located opposite Château Canon on the famed limestone plateau of Saint-Émilion. In the cellar, foeders, amphorae, and used barrels are combined with new oak. The result is one of the finest wines this estate has produced in modern times. The 2021 vintage is a Merlot-based blend, with approximately 13% Cabernet Franc and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon in a supporting role.

| Sommy Pairing Beschrijving | Deze Merlot-gedomineerde Saint-Émilion presenteert zich met sappige cassis en wilde bessen, onderliggende tonen van rauwe cacao, warme specerijen en vruchtbare aarde, terwijl het royale, vlezig rijpe middenpalet wordt gestut door frisse zuren en poederige tannines. Daardoor vormt de wijn een ideale partner voor rundvlees, lam, wild en rijpe kazen: de geconcentreerde fruitigheid en stevige tannines snijden door vet en umami heen en de aardse en specerijtonen harmoniseren met geroosterd vlees. Extra geslaagd worden gerechten bereid op de grill of van het spit, langzaam gegaarde of gestoofde stukken zoals runderstoof of hertengoulash met jeneverbessen, en bij kazen kies je voor oude harde kazen of een krachtige blauwader. |

The 2021 Beau-Séjour Bécot has realized all the potential it showed from barrel, unfurling in the glass with aromas of wild berries and plums mingled with notions of violets, lilac, forest floor and spices. Medium to full-bodied, deep and pure, with a fleshy core of fruit that's framed by supple, polished tannins and bright acids, it's seamless and sensual, concluding with a long, mouthwatering finish. As readers may remember, it was cropped at 35 hectoliters per hectare, delivering a blend based on Merlot with some 13% Cabernet Franc and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon in a supporting role.

Lots of blue fruit with violets and a hint of boysenberry. Medium body, integrated and fine tannins and a cool, linear finish. Solid length and brightness.

From: 2021 Bordeaux: L’Enfant Terrible (Feb 2024)
The 2021 Beau-Séjour Bécot is powerful, dense and quite savory, with the Franc very much in evidence. Dark red cherry, blood orange, spice, mint, rose petal, incense and scorched earth give this deep, layered Saint-Émilion tons of flavor complexity. This is such a distinctive and compelling wine.
