98 100Jeff LeveThe floral bouquet is what you initially notice; from there, your attention quickly turns to its array of red and black fruits, licorice, tobacco, mint leaves, and cedar. The palate is elegant, silky, creamy, fresh, and concentrated. It takes just a second to sense the wealth of fruit on the palate, with vibrancy, refinement, and purity. The finish continues along the same path, with layers of perfectly ripe fruit, a touch of salinity, and hints of licorice, espresso, and cocoa. Clearly, this is among the best wines in the estate's history. If you allow it a few years in the bottle before pulling a cork, it will be even better and should provide you with pleasure for two or more decades with ease. The wine is a blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 43% Merlot, and 5% Petit Verdot. 13.4% ABV, pH 3.6. The harvest took place from September 5 to September 20. This marks the earliest harvest vintage in the estate's history. Yields were 31 hectoliters per hectare. Drink from 2030-2065. 96-98/100. May 2026.

97 100Yves BeckLes nuances de bois frais fournissent une base solide au bouquet de Beychevelle qui met en valeur sa pluralité au travers de parfums de baies noires, de réglisse, de graphite, de menthe et même d'effluves floraux. Onctueux en attaque, le vin est mené par des tannins puissants et précis. Ils sont charnus, élégants, parfaitement intégrés et assurent la tenue, en plus de la vigueur. L'expression fruitée gagne en dynamique le long du palais. Elle est cautionnée par de fins amers qui dynamisent la fin de bouche et étirent la finale. 2032-2065. 96-97/100. Avril 2026.
