A rock solid Haut-Médoc, the 2021 Château Beaumont gives up plenty of ripe red and black fruits, a kiss of meatiness in its dried herb and spicy aromatics, medium-bodied richness, and a balanced, well-made style on the palate.

The 2021 Beaumont is a beautiful, expressive Haut-Médoc to drink now and over the next decade or so. Crushed flowers, red-toned fruit, spice, leather, tobacco and cedar open first. Aromatic and medium in body, with impeccable balance, Beaumont is very nicely done. Pretty floral overtones lift the finish.

The 2021 Beaumont offers up aromas of minty berries and sweaty saddle leather, followed by a medium-bodied, soft and somewhat feral palate. Hippophiles may find more to admire than I did.

Chopped herbs, currants, blackberries and mushrooms on the nose. It’s juicy and fresh with a medium body and lightly grainy tannins. Drink in 2024.

This is a nice wine that just about manages to retain balance and fruit direction. It is a little lighter than I would ideally like, but I imagine that this will not trouble drinkers who will no doubt attack it early in life and enjoy the freshness and purity. 16

Medium-bodied with juicy currant and beetroot notes. Medium, sleek tannins. Savory finish.

Un grand candidat pour le meilleur rapport qualité-prix du Médoc, dans un esprit proche des bons saint-julien, comme sa situation le permet. Tendre, raffiné, assez long, avec un grain de tannin séducteur.

The 2021 Beaumont is much leaner on the nose compared directly with the 2020, though it is well defined, slightly herbaceous and fresh in style. The midweight palate is medium-bodied with dry tannins on the entry and a grainy texture. It attenuates slightly toward the cedary finish. Give this 2–3 years in bottle to see if it fills out.

Offene Nase, mit krautigen Noten, grüner Paprika, dunkler Kirschfrucht. Der Gaumen ist straff, zeigt eine gute Balance aus Frucht und Struktur, endet kurz, jedoch sehr ausgewogen. Hier wollte man nicht zu viel, hat sauber gearbeitet. Jung geniessen. 2025-2035 (Verkostet im April 2022. UGCB)

Le nez possède un boisé grillé avec des notes d'épices et de graphite. En bouche, des notes de poivron vert et de pyrazines se font jour ainsi qu'une sécheresse tannique et une finale courte et asséchante. Domamage.

Offering up aromas of sweet berries, spices and loamy soil, the 2021 Beaumont is medium-bodied, lively and nicely balanced, concluding with a discreetly minty finish. The blend is dominated by an unusually high 65% of Cabernet Sauvignon.
