Rapport qualité-prix étonnant pour ce cru vinifié par l’équipe de Beychevelle. On trouvera ici un super 2023 pour un prix défiant toute concurrence à ce niveau de qualité. C’est l’antidote à toute forme de bashing.

Beaumont offenbart sich nach und nach, wie üblich! Das ist ein gutes Zeichen, denn so kann er seine Finesse und Harmonie allein schon im Bouquet zur Geltung bringen. Der Wein hat eine gute Dichte, bewegt sich linear vorwärts und wird dabei von kompakten Tanninen gehalten, die seine Kraft bilden, während die Säure den Gaumen strukturiert. Ein eleganter, harmonischer und vielversprechender Wein!

Deep ruby/plum-hued, the 2023 Château Beaumont offers up a beautiful nose of red and black currants, leafy herbs, spice, and a hint of flowers. It's balanced, medium-bodied, has some classy, chocolaty oak, and ripe tannins. A rock solid Haut-Médoc, it has outstanding potential, if not a tad more.

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2023 Beaumont features notes of fresh redcurrants, raspberries, and underbrush plus hints of dried herbs and wet slate. The light to medium-bodied palate is refreshing and chewy, with lively red berry flavors and an herbal finish. The blend is 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, and 6% Petit Verdot.

Good quality, a little soft through the mid palate, but this has charm, and some balance, there are blackberry and red cherry fruits, soft tannins, well worked and charming, but drops and is overly oaked, drying finish. Grands Millésimes de France owner. Tasted twice. Bronze.

The 2023 Beaumont is an expressive Haut-Médoc. Blackberry, gravel, dried herbs, menthol and licorice are nicely woven together. The 2023 is attractive, if a touch dark and almost somber in feel. Frost and warm weather caused dehydration, reducing yields. That comes through in the form of tannins that feel a bit tough and bruising. Tasted two times.

The 2023 Beaumont has a generous bouquet with a mixture of blackberries, red plums and sous-bois. It's not as powerful as the previous vintage, but there is always a sense of "honesty" about this Claret that I appreciate. The palate is medium-bodied with powdery tannins and fine acidity, quite smooth in texture, with a touch of savoriness on the finish. Enjoy it over six to eight years.

Dark ruby colour, purple reflections. Delicately leafy with plum fruit, a hint of cassis, blackberries, candied orange zest. Lean, red berryish, subtle tannins, fresh struc- ture, leafy touch in the finish.

Aromas of sweet cassis and plums framed by a touch of creamy oak introduce the 2023 Beaumont, a medium-bodied, supple, soft and giving blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 6% Petit Verdot. While this estate suffered from frost and mildew, for now it retains attractive purity of fruit in an easygoing style.

Notes of dark berry and walnut here. It’s medium-bodied with a grainy texture and some good fruit at the end.
