Tasting notes
Amiral de Beychevelle is impetuous and very expressive. Notes of violet emerge in
a predominantly floral bouquet. The tannins are powerful and silky. Lovely fresh palate,
with a combination of red fruit and spices.
Another fine wine in the recent series of excellent vintages of Amiral de Beychevelle.
Description
Amiral de Beychevelle shares an obvious kinship with the Grand Vin, but however,
Amiral de Beychevelle is free from it and asserts its own personality. Its wine is mainly
produced from a vineyard dedicated to it. With an average age of 35 years, it is mainly
composed of two traditional Médoc grape varieties, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.
Its gravelly soils give it an airy, fresh bouquet, allowing it to be enjoyed a little younger
than its illustrious elder, Château Beychevelle.
