Château Beau-Séjour Bécot 2012 is a refined Saint-Émilion Premier Grand Cru Classé that reflects the rich history and unique terroir of Saint-Émilion. This wine has a deep garnet colour and opens with seductive aromas of ripe cherries, plums, cedar and a touch of truffle. On the palate, the wine is full and opulent, with velvety tannins and layered flavours of black fruit, chocolate and spice. The wine has excellent structure and balance, with an elegant, long finish that leaves you longing for the next sip. The 2012 vintage produced wines that are approachable early, but thanks to their complexity and balance can continue to gain in strength in the cellar for many years. This Château Beau-Séjour Bécot pairs perfectly with classic French dishes such as roast duck, beef tenderloin and truffle dishes, which complement the intensity of the wine.
Excellent with roast duck, beef tenderloin or truffle dishes.
