Tasting Notes

Inside Bordeaux Jane Anson - 03 Jun 24
Deep ruby colour, as it hits the 10 year mark you can see the work that Beychevelle had begun to do at this point in terms of tightning up its fruit expression and working the tannins to elongate them. Slate, cocoa bean, espresso, bilberry, cassis, totally delicious, a lot to enjoy if a little short on the finish. Will soften further over next decade but you can begin drinking now. Harvest September 25 to October 14, 60% new oak for ageing.
Drinking Date: 2024 - 2044

The Wine Independent Lisa Perrotti-Brown - 05 Mar 24
The 2014 Beychevelle is medium to deep garnet in color. Notes of blackcurrant jelly, cedar, and pencil lead stride confidently from the glass, plus hints of menthol and truffles. The medium-bodied palate has a rock solid structure of firm, grainy tannins and a lively line supporting the muscular fruit, finishing long and earthy.

Vinous Neal Martin - 19 Mar 24
The 2014 Beychevelle has a more high-toned nose, more primal, though there is some pure black fruit laced with crushed stone and graphite that will eventually be more expressive. The palate is medium-bodied with a succulent entry, very smooth and plusher than its peers. Blood orange-infused black fruit towards the finish delivers just a touch of spice that keeps the senses on their toes. This is a "solid" showing. Tasted blind at the Southwold 10-Year-On tasting and Bordeaux Index's 10-Year-On tasting.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate Neal Martin - 31 Mar 17
The 2014 Beychevelle has a very comely, pure bouquet with heightened dark cherry, blackcurrant and wilted violet scents rendering it almost more Margaux-like than Saint Julien. The palate is medium-bodied, svelte in texture with light tannin. It is a nimble Beychevelle, light on its feet with wonderful freshness and tension towards the finish. This is a very well-crafted wine from Philippe Blanc and his team, a St. Julien that is nimble on its toes.
Drinking Date: 2020 - 2040

Tasted blind. Deep garnet. Ripe fruits, some sweetness. Firm, dry, still needing time for the tannins to mellow. A powerful and spicy wine with good length. (JH)
