March 21, 2023 - Black and red currants, coffee bean, licorice, and smoke create the nose.

Drink from 2023-2038.

This is clearly the finest vintage of Beau-Site ever produced! Drink from 2024-2039.

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.

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.
