VertdeVin
The nose is fresh, elegant, finely tight and offers a grain, deepness, a certain intensity/power and a certain delicacy. It reveals notes of wild blackberry, small ripe/Fresh black fruits and small notes of fresh cherry, violet associated with touches of small wild fruits, zan, sweet spices, a very discreet hint of mild tobacco and tobacco. The palate is fruity and offers richness, a beautiful freshness, minerality as well as a good definition, concentration, a beautiful grain and a fine unctuosity. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy creamy raspberry, crushed cassis and small notes of creamy raspberry associated with touches of fresh strawberry, violet, cornflower as well as hints of tonka bean, caramelization, discreet hints of vanilla and a subtle hint of green cardamom. A fine sapidity on the finish/persistence. A wine full of balance between concentration and delicacy.
Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider
The nose starts off with flowers, tobacco leaf, thyme, black currants, blackberries, cedar and wet earth. Deep in color, the wine is full-bodied, with a serious depth of flavor culminating in its rich, round, concentrated long, elegant, fruit-filled finish. This will age and evolve for at least 25-30 years. The wine blends 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 41% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc.

Aged for around 18 months in barrel, 60% new and 40% second fill, the 2018 Beychevelle needs a fair bit of swirling to release classic notes of cassis, plum preserves and ripe blackberries, with emerging suggestions of unsmoked cigars, tilled soil and cedar chest, plus a waft of pencil lead. The medium to full-bodied palate is still very tightly wound, offering finely packed black fruit and earthy layers within a frame of firm, grainy tannins and just enough freshness, finishing long and mineral laced. This will need a good 5-6 years to come around and then will drink beautifully over the next 20+ years.
