Chateau Beau Sejour Becot 1er Grand Cru Classe B 2022

98–100
/100

Sorte kirsebær, cassis uden sukker. Et elegant lige løb, fin lakrids nedenunder, intet sødt. En af de Saint-Émilions i årgangen, der har taget denne nye vej af elegance. Stor fornøjelse i dens legende, burgundiske stil! Munden er legende og lækker, men igen meget fin. Hvad Beychevelle er for Saint-Julien, kan Bécot med Pavie Macquin og andre gøre for Saint-Émilion. Så legende, så fin, så delikat! Tanninerne er silkeagtige, det hele springer ud i en vidunderlig finish. En top Bourgogne-værdi om otte til ti år. Sikke en skønhed, meget elegant! 98-100/100 *** Beau-Séjour Bécot ligger på det bedste terroir på skråningerne i Saint-Émilion, på toppen af plateauet. Ren kalksten med lidt ler. Vingården er direkte nabo til Angélus og Coutet og har været i fremgang i årevis og er blevet bedre og bedre i takt med, at brugen af nyt træ er blevet reduceret. Vinene bliver mere afbalancerede. Terroiret er bestemt godt nok til at være i forreste række.

Årgangsrapport

Årgang 2022 er en multikompleks, kontrastfuld, heterogen og helt usædvanlig årgang - åbenlyse konsekvenser af klimaforandringer? Rhone har således oplevet to ekstreme, paradoksale og diametralt modsatte årgange i de sidste to år. 2021 var iskold, kølig og regnfuld, klassisk spændende med køligt klima. 2022 var derimod alt for tør og ekstremt solrig. Denne hurtige ændring er noget forvirrende, og 2022 sætter endda permanent spørgsmålstegn ved nogle vinmarkers fremtid. Årgang 2022, som allerede er blevet erklæret for en af de bedste årgange i det sidste årti, og som nogle endda sammenligner med 1978, har nogle vidunderlige, endda storslåede overraskelser i vente i nord, men også nogle bitre skuffelser i syd. Ikke desto mindre er vinstokkenes modstandsdygtighed over for ekstreme klimatiske forhold forbløffende! Den mere eller mindre intense nedbør i midten af august og september reddede de vinmarker og områder, hvor point of no return endnu ikke var nået på grund af vandstress, men nogle gange var det for sent. 2022 er således præget af en meget stærk heterogenitet mellem og også inden for appellationer, hvor storslået skønhed og udtørret, umoden elendighed ofte ligger tæt på hinanden, og hvor alting hænger i en tynd tråd. Vores smagninger hos producenterne og vores omhyggelige udvælgelse er endnu vigtigere end nogensinde i denne 2022-årgang. Sydlige Rhône: I modsætning til forventningerne er de hvide harmoniske, aromatiske og ikke fede og alkoholiske, der er mange store succeser. Fantastisk og fremragende! Kvaliteten af de røde vine er meget mere heterogen. Ubalancerede, disharmoniske, skøre og hårde tanniner og manglende fenolisk modenhed kan findes i mange unge vinstokke. Kun meget gamle vinstokke med minimalt udbytte og dybe rødder giver komplekse og yndefulde, endda meget store vine af historisk ekstraklasse. Nordlige Rhône: Det køligere nord blev skånet for de fleste af årgangens problemer. Fuld modenhed blev næsten altid opnået, og alkoholniveauet forblev moderat. Smagene af de lige så store hvide og røde vine er frodige, fyldige og alligevel faste. Vine med typicitet og stil, som vil glæde både sommelierer og restauranter. En historisk stor årgang!

Wine Cellar Insider om: Chateau Beau Sejour Becot 1er Grand Cru Classe B

I loved this from the barrel, and I am even happier to report that it is even better, now that it is bottled! The perfume is ethereal, with its bouquet of flowers, red, black, and blue fruits, licorice, and spice. On the palate, this is where the wine truly shines. Rich, plush, incredibly dense, sensuous, opulent, and elegant, the wine feels weightless, making it effortless to drink. The purity in the fruit, paired with its cashmere tannins, seamless finish, and layers of fruit, topped by salty, crushed stones, hits the 60-second mark and keeps on going. The wine blends 76% Merlot, 22% Cabernet Franc and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon. Make no mistake, this is the best wine ever produced at Beau-Sejour Becot, as well as the best deal in Bordeaux today for a 100 Pt. wine. Drink from 2028-2060.

Galloni om: Chateau Beau Sejour Becot 1er Grand Cru Classe B

The 2022 Beau-Séjour Bécot is a total stunner. What a wine! The 2022 was magnificent en primeur, and it is all that from bottle. The aromatics alone are mesmerizing. Crushed rose petal, mint, blood orange, new leather and cedar meld into a core of pliant red-toned fruit. More than anything else, I am so impressed with the wine's precision and finesse. I have never tasted a Beau-Séjour Bécot like this.

The Wine Palate om: Chateau Beau Sejour Becot 1er Grand Cru Classe B

Opulent, Fragrant, Blue Fruit, Violets, Roses, Cedar, Medium to Full bodied, Refreshing Acidity, Notable Oak, Grainy Texture, High Tannin, Needs Time. The 2022 Beau-Sejour Becot was aged for 16 months: 55% in new French oak barrels and 20% in one-wine old barrels, with the remaining 25% in amphorae and foudres. The blend is 76% Merlot, 22% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon, with a pH of 3.55. Deep garnet-purple colored, it swans out with showy aromas of kirsch, juicy plums, and wild blueberries, leading to hints of lilacs, rose oil, pipe tobacco, and licorice, with a touch of cedar. The medium to full-bodied palate is a vortex of energetic black and red berry layers, co-mingled with impressive tension and supported by very fine-grained tannins, finishing long with lots of mineral and floral sparkles. An absolute head-turner—stunning!

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Beau Sejour Becot 1er Grand Cru Classe B

Tasted on multiple occasions, the 2022 Château Beau-Séjour Bécot is flat-out sensational, as well as the finest wine I’ve tasted from this château. Powerful aromatics of red, blue, and black fruits as well as crushed stone and violets define the aromatics, and it’s full-bodied, incredibly concentrated, has integrated acidity, and ultra-fine tannins. Based on 76% Merlot, 22% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon, this heavenly Saint-Emilion will benefit from just 3-5 years of bottle age and have 30 years or more of overall longevity. Back up the truck.

Parker om: Chateau Beau Sejour Becot 1er Grand Cru Classe B

The 2022 Beau-Séjour Bécot has turned out brilliantly in bottle. Wafting from the glass with a complex bouquet of sweet wild berries mingled with rose petals, orange zest, violets, gentian and espresso roast, it's full-bodied, supple and suave, with a deep core of cool, layered fruit, beautifully vibrant flavors and polished structuring tannins, concluding with a saline finish. As I wrote when I tasted it from barrel, this is a Saint-Émilion of breathtaking perfume and harmony that will be worth a special effort to seek out.

Chateau Beau Sejour Becot

Ligesom Beausejour Duffau blev BeausSejour Becot drevet af Sankt Martins Orden, før vingården blev delt op i middelalderen. Efter flere ejerskifter købte Michel Becot, som kom fra en gammel vinbondefamilie, ejendommen i 1969 og overdrog den til sine sønner Gerard og Dominique i 1985. Gerard og...
