Description
Beau-Séjour Bécot bursts from the glass with aromas of cassis, wild berries, raw cocoa, spice 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 famous 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 produced by this estate in modern times. The 2021 vintage is a Merlot-based blend, with approximately 13% Cabernet Franc and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon in a supporting role.
This is a 1.5 liter magnum. Even tastier and with a longer drinking window.
