This Château Beychevelle Saint-Julien (Grand Cru Classé) has aromas of fresh blackberry, cassis, mocha, and leather, with subtle spice and tobacco notes.On the palate, it has dense, ripe tannins, balanced acidity, and an intense, complex structure. The finish is long and persistent, with a lingering hint of smoke and spice. This is an excellent example of the high-quality wines being produced in the Saint-Julien appellation.
