Lisa Perrotti-Brown, The Wine Independent

The 2018 Beau-Sejour Becot has a deep garnet purple color. It starts off with vanilla and chocolate notes, with a core of boysenberry preserves and baked plums, plus wafts of redcurrant jelly, roses, and wild sage. Full-bodied, the palate is firm and grainy, with just enough freshness and a perfumed finish.

Neal Martin, Vinous

The 2018 Beau-Séjour Bécot is nicely detailed on the nose of pixelated black fruit laced with raspberry and subtle floral scents; back notes of marmalade come through with aeration. The pliant palate is medium-bodied with luscious tannins disguising the structure behind this Saint-Émilion. I suspect that it might close up for a period before blossoming with bottle age. This is a sophisticated and very well-crafted wine that will age with style and panache.

Château Beau Séjour Bécot

Château Beau Séjour Bécot

This estate has changed its name several times over the years, in the eighteenth century it was known as Domaine de Peycoucou - the hill where the cuckoo sings- but its was eventually 1787, at the wish of the presiding owner, Général Jacques de Carle that it became Château Beau-Séjour Bécot. Located on the plateau of Saint-Martin de Mazerat, to the immediate west of Saint-Emilion village, the Château lies in the heart of the Saint-Emilion appellation, surrounded by Premier Grand Cru Classé A & B vineyards. The Merlot and Cabernet vines are planted on limestone clay soils and the wines are aged in new Alliers oak barrels from 12-18 months.
