Cedar, peppery spices, herbs, tobacco leaf and currants show in the nose with little effort. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, chewy, vibrant, fresh and peppery, which adds to the red currant profile. Drink from 2024-2036.

March 21, 2023 - Black and red currants, coffee bean, licorice, and smoke create the nose. Medium-bodied, creamy, and fresh, with soft-textures, and chalky red fruits with a background note of chocolate on the mid-palate, and in the finish, this is going to be delicious in its youth, and age for over a decade. Drink from 2023-2038.

Spicy with fresh herbs, forest leaf and Asian spices that accompany all the sweet, ripe, cassis and blackberry. There is ample freshness to all the ripe fruits, concentration and a nice touch of cocoa along with a firm tannic edge allowing the wine to age and evolve. This is clearly the finest vintage of Beau-Site ever produced! Drink from 2024-2039.

Clearly the best vintage of Beau-Site ever produced! The wine pops with loads of fresh, ripe, sweet, elegant spicy cherries, flowers, Asian spices, cassis and blackberry. Fresh, concentrated, long and clean, with a beautiful purity of fruit, espresso, earth, spice and cocoa in the finish. This is going to age and evolve for at least 20 years or more. 91-93 Pts

The ripeness in the fruits is apparent on the nose with its dark red pit fruit, currant, blackberry and spice filled notes. Earthy, fresh, sweet, round and fruity, with an inkling of dark chocolate in the end note, this has a lot generosity along with the right softness in the tannins. This is the best Beau-Site produced yet. Give it a few years in the cellar and it is going to be even better as it fills out, softens and loses its baby fat.

Fresh, black raspberries conspire to create a crowd-pleasing, forward-styled wine, assuredly great on release.

Forward, earthy, medium bodied, tobacco and cherry tinged wine. Semi strict in style, with loads crunchy, spicy berries in the once again, semi-strict finish. Quite classic in nature.

Firm, spicy, bright and crisp, with a classically leaning profile, the cassis is ripe and fresh, but the tannins and a bit tough. Give this time, and things could soften here.
