Take the stress out of buying a gift, let them choose exactly what they want.
Aromatically so well-defined, the 2016 Beau-Séjour Bécot is a charmer with notes of blood orange, pipe tobacco, wilted roses, and hedgerow fruit. There is a vibrancy and salinity that comes from the limestone terroir, with supple, fine-grained tannin supporting the fruit. Clearly a long life ahead of it, this is a standout wine from the estate and the start of an ongoing rise in quality.
Deep crimson. Smooth and ripe. No rough edges. Until a sort of dry Marmite finish (love it or hate it). Cool, light end. Rather a lack of fruit intensity on the mid palate.
This is really beautiful in 2016 showing blackberry, blueberry and walnut character. Full-bodied, tight and focussed with fantastic length. Serious. Best ever modern vintage?
