Sol Béni Grain Bleu (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
Round, lush, oaky, and rounded, it is hard to get past the oak before the fruit appears. It does come, but it takes patience. Drink from 2025-2037. 1,066 Views Tasted Mar 1, 2025 |

Sol Béni (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
This is quite oaky in nature. Packed with espresso. burnt wood, dark chocolate, and drying tannins, this might be better with bottle age, but I am not sure it is ever going to integrate. Drink from 2025-2038. 1,376 Views Tasted Mar 1, 2025 |

2021
Sol Béni Grain Bleu (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
Espresso, cocoa, licorice, smoke and plums form the core of the character here. The wine is round, with an oaky edge to the polished fruits on the mid-palate and in the drying finish. Drink from 2024-2036. 1,333 Views Tasted Mar 9, 2024 |

2021
Sol Béni (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
Round, supple and forward, with a lot of oak surrounding the black cherries and herbs, the wine finishes with a creamy-edge to its red fruits and herbs. If the ok integrates, it could be a better wine. Drink from 2024-2033. 1,394 Views Tasted Mar 9, 2024 |

2020
Sol Béni (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
Coffee grounds, black cherry, spice, smoke and licorice open the wine. Dark in color, the wine is fruity, forward and lushly textured. This should be easy to drink on release. 88-90 Pts 2,730 Views Tasted May 20, 2021 |

2020
Sol Béni Coup du Chapeau (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
The large, oversized bottle makes an impression on the table. The wine strives to be equally impressive with all its waves of inky dark berries, licorice, dark chocolate and strong espresso notes. Full-bodied, concentrated and lush, the wine hits 15% ABV, finishing with a wealth of dark fruits and oak. Give it a few years to develop and allow the oak to become better integrated. 88-90 Pts 2,878 Views Tasted May 20, 2021 |

2018
Sol Béni Coup du Chapeau (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
Packaged in a large, oversized bottle, the wine is big, rich, powerful, full-bodied and shows off its dark, cocoa-covered, very ripe, black cherries and espresso easily on the nose and mouth. 2,288 Views Tasted Apr 8, 2021 |
