Chateau Beaumont 2022

WEINWISSER: "Intensives blaubeeriges Bouquet, betörendes Veilchenparfüm, Lakritze und Heidelbeergelee. Am satten Gaumen mit cremiger Textur, gut stützender Rasse, reifer Extraktfülle und trainiertem Körper. Im gebündelten aromatischen Finale Brombeere, Holundersaft und feinkörnige Adstringenz. Ein großer Exploit bei diesem Château - Bravo! 2027 – 2043."

JEB DUNNUCK: "Tasted on two separate occasions, the 2022 Château Beaumont is a beautiful Haut-Médoc based on 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot mostly from sandy soils. Given the challenging conditions of the vintage, it would be easy to assume this would be a subpar release (the vintage was particularly challenging for sandy soils), but you'd be mistaken. This offers impressive purity in its red, blue, and black fruits as well as notes of chocolate and scorched earth. With medium body, present yet ripe tannins, and outstanding length, it's going to drink well immediately on release and evolve for 10-12 years or more."

FALSTAFF: "Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Zart kräuterwürzig unterlegte dunkle Waldbeerfrucht, zart nach Vanille und Mandarinenzesten. Mittlere Komplexität, rote Kirschen, dezent nach dunklem Nugat, zarte blättrige Würze im Abgang."

JAMES SUCKLING: "Slightly chewy with fresh blackcurrant and berry character. Medium body. Fresh."
