    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    The 2009 Beau Sejour Becot is a very attractive effort. Critically this is gently extracted; there is lots of sweet ripe fruit, a suave texture and very silky tannins.

    Neal Martin,

    The 2009 Beau-Séjour Bécot was picked between 2 and 14 October. Like many 2009s it has an extravagant bouquet with red berry fruit, damson jam, hints of wild honey and crème de cassis. The oak is nicely integrated but it is the growing season that is doing the talking. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin and a fine bead of acidity. Perhaps somewhat predictably it feels quite plush in the mouth but it retains admirable freshness and there is great backbone towards the ambitious finish. It pulls everything back from the brink when anything more might have tipped this 2009 into being ostentatious or flash. Superb. Tasted at the château.
