Chateau Beychevelle (375ML Half-Bottle) 2004
The 2004 vintage has prominent fruit aromas (blackcurrant and black cherry) therefore bearing the mark of full maturity. The woody aromas from maturing are perceptible (toastiness, grilled flavour) but remain discreet and elegant. The wine is neat, simple, fresh, and well-balanced, with a good length in the mouth The tannins are tasty, but without any marked astringency, with potential promise and
excellent maturity. Overall, Chateau Beychevelle 2004 is marked by finesse and balance and is potentially great for laying down.
