2023 Château Beau-Site, St Estèphe, Bordeaux

Description

Blend: 70% Cabernet Sauvignon; 25% Merlot; 3% Petit Verdot; 2% Cabernet Franc.

This is owned by the Castéja family and so from the same stable as Ch. Batailley; it inherits some of its sibling’s earnest solidity. There are some decent gravelly notes to give the wine a St Estèphe bite. There is an appealing squeeze of freshness to the finish. This is a perfectly honest, soundly made wine that will probably surprise a few by displaying more dimension after a few years in bottle.

Saint-Estèphe

Saint-Estèphe

Saint-Estèphe is the northernmost of the most important communes of the Médoc, bordering Pauillac on its southernmost border, with only a gully and stream separating it from Ch. Lafite Rothschild. The wines can appear austere in youth, but the best typically display good depth of colour, pronounced acidity and tannins in youth, and are exceptionally long-lived. At their best, they are the equal of almost any Bordeaux.
