Description

he 15.92-hectare vineyard on the limestone plateau of Saint Emilion is planted to 70% Merlot, 24% Cabernet Franc, and 6% Cabernet Sauvignon with vines close to 40 years of age. The vineyards see crop-thinning and leaf-pulling. The fruit is table sorted three times; after a 4-day cold soak at 2 to 6° C before being fermented in 80 and 100-hl, stainless steel tanks with a 30-day maceration. Microbullage is performed during fermentation. Malolactic takes place in barrel with first four months spent on the post-malo lees; aging in 75% new French oak from five coopers.
The property produces close to 6,000 cases of Bordeaux wine each year.

This wine opens with oak, stone, caramel, plum and black cherry aromas. It's full bodied, concentrated and elegant in texture with a finish that is filled with layers of sweet, fresh, black and red fruits.

2008 Beau-Sejour Becot starts with spice filled aromatics complicated with licorice, blackberry, oak, and earthy scents. Plush and full bodied, the wine ends with a mouthful of deep, fresh blackberry.

08 Château Beau-Sejour Becot shows a lot of black cherry, minerals, and plum on the nose. Full bodied, structured, and stuffed with ripe fruit, the wine offers a long, black fruit filled finish.
Jeff Leve, the Wine Cellar Insider

This red/purple-colored offering reveals a sweet toasty oak character, wonderful ripeness, full-bodied opulence, superb purity, a layered mouthfeel, high but ripe tannin, and an underlying minerality and crispness from the vintage's acid profile. This wine appears to just be coming off of malolactic fermentation, and it will benefit from several years of bottle age. It should keep for two decades or more. The natural alcohol came in at 14%.Proprietor Gerard Becot's 40-acre vineyard, planted in pure limestone, is relatively large for St.-Emilion. The final blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon represents a sweet, rich, concentrated 2008 that competes favorably with the 2005.
Score: 91/93+ Robert Parker, eRobertParker.com (182), April 2009

Fragrant open fruit, really classy oak in the background. Tremendous fruit which is generous and satisfying with grainy tannins, natural acidity and pleasing freshness. Very polished.
