Chateau Beau-Sejour Becot 2014

A renowned Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé with expressive aromas of blackberry, black cherry, violet, licorice, and graphite. Silky tannins, vibrant freshness, and remarkable precision create an elegant, age-worthy Bordeaux with exceptional depth and a lingering finish.

Food Pairing: Pair with beef tenderloin, roast lamb, duck breast, venison, truffle dishes, aged Comté, or wild mushroom risotto.

93 Points - Decanter

A beautiful black fruit laden Pauillac that, even at this early stage, exhibits an essence of sister estate Mouton. The wine is starting to open out but there is a lot more to come with silky tannins that are well integrated. As usual, in a modest vintage, this is a wine that punches well above its weight.

93 Points - James Suckling

Attractive aromas of sweet plums, cassis, dusty spices and tobacco. Medium-bodied with integrated, fine-grained tannins. Delicate flavors and a long, scented finish. 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot.

93 Points - Vinous

The 2014 d'Armailhac is bright, precise and finely sculpted. Expressive red stone fruit, flowers, mint, chalk and citrus abound in this vibrant, beautifully delineated Pauillac. Open-knit and expressive, with good depth and silky tannins, the wine exudes class. The fresh, invigorating style is classic 2014. This is a lovely showing. Tasted two times.

92 Points - Wine Enthusiast

Sometimes seen as the junior estate in the Mouton-Rothschild stable, this property is now showing its own fine character. The wine is juicy with crisp fruit and soft tannins. It is in a rounded generous style that will allow it to be drinkable relatively soon. Drink starting from 2020.

91 Points - Wine Spectator

Fresh and pure, but not shy on depth, offering an ample core of cassis and blackberry purée flavors. There's a fine chalky minerality throughout, but overall the structure is polished. Anise and spice notes add range.
