Lobenberg: Vinmarken ligger på det bedste terroir på skråningerne i Saint Emilion, på toppen af plateauet. Ren kalksten med lidt ler. I nogle år nu i skyggen af de ekstremt genopståede Beausejour Duffau og Canon. Masser af sorte kirsebær i næsen, frodig og rig, lidt cassis, med en lille tendens til overmodning. Søde sorte kirsebær i munden også, meget rig, men også meget ekstraheret med en lille tendens til flygtighed, lidt grænseoverskridende, ganske fantastisk. Jeg synes, den er lidt uden for alfarvej, bare lidt for meget af det hele. Men bestemt med en fin sødme, smuk rød frugt og masser af presserende sort frugt med et meget blidt tannintæppe nedenunder. Intet er hårdt, friskheden er meget mærkbar. Jeg må erkende, at dette nok endda er en ret god Beau-Sejour Becot, selv om jeg personligt ikke bryder mig så meget om den. Alligevel en topværdi i et ekstremt godt år, som sagt med et lille strejf af flygtighed, hvor man ikke ved præcis, hvordan den vil udvikle sig. 96-97/100

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

Chewy, crisp, fresh and lively in character, the wine is packed with herbs, tobacco leaf, dark currants, espresso and cedar. More savory than sweet, with a noticeable, classic crunchy character on the palate, the finish really lingers. Nearly forward in style, this is a charming Pauillac that will age for at least 2-3 decades with little effort. 97/100

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

Lots of leaf, mushroom, bark and plum aromas and flavors. It’s medium-to full-bodied with juicy fruit and firm, fine tannins. Tight at the finish. The quality and the polish of the tannins are exceptional. So integrated. Needs three or four years to open. Try after 2024. 96/100

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

The 2018 Beau-Séjour Bécot has really closed down since I tasted it en primeur. Inky red/purplish fruit, lavender, rose petal, mint and blood orange gradually open in the glass, all framed by veins of chalky minerality. The 2018 is a fabulous wine in the making, but readers have to be patient. Time in a decanter or simply in the glass helps to bring out the wine's considerable depth. 96/100

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

-- Parker: The 2018 Beau-Sejour Becot is composed of 80% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. The Merlot was harvested on September 12-25, and the Cabernet varieties were harvested on October 4, 5 and 10. Yields were 46 hectoliters per hectare, and it is anticipated that the wine will age for 16 months. Sixty-five percent of the wine will be matured in new barriques, while 35% will be aged in vats, amphorae and large oak casks of 20-hectoliter capacity. Deep garnet-purple colored, it leaps from the glass with bold, expressive notions of stewed plums, blackberry pie and Black Forest cake with nuances of menthol, mocha, molten licorice and wild sage plus a waft of lavender. Full-bodied, the palate is laden with latent energy, offering slow-releasing glimpses at dark, seductive berry preserves layers and vibrant earthy accents, framed by firm, grainy tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long and mineral laced. 95-97/100

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

-- Jeb Dunnuck: Tasted on two separate occasions, the 2018 Château Beau-Séjour Bécot is a brilliant wine based on 80% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, aging in 65% new oak (there’s some in amphora as well) that comes from a magical terroir on the upper plateau, just outside of Saint-Émilion. This is pure limestone soils, and the wine shows it with its fresh, vibrant style as well as incredibly minerality. Vivid cassis, graphite, white flowers, and spice characteristics all flow to a medium to full-bodied, pure, incredibly elegant wine that shows the new style of this estate beautifully. It’s not for those seeking overt power and opulence, but it builds incrementally on the palate, with ultra-fine tannins and a great finish. It’s as classy as it gets. Give bottles 4-6 years of bottle age, and it will keep for 2-3 decades. 95-97/100

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

-- Wine Spectator: Juicy and forward in feel, with fresh plum, blackberry and anise notes. Dense, but still silky and refined in feel, revealing a long mineral echo through the finish. This is so pure, it seems almost too easy to drink already, just as you realize how ridiculously long it is. 96-99/100
