"The 2022 Beychevelle is fabulous. In most recent vintages Beychevelle has been a flamboyant, extravagant Saint-Julien, but in 2022 it is surprisingly vibrant and fresh, almost shockingly so. Ripe, red cherry/plum fruit, blood orange, rose petal and spice are all beautifully delineated. More than anything, I admire the wines freshness and drive, qualities that have not often been present in recent vintages. That makes 2022 one of my favorite recent vintages here. Tasted three times."

"Unwinding in the glass with aromas of dark berries, cherries and cassis mingled with hints of violets and licorice, framed by creamy new oak, the 2022 Beychevelle is medium to full-bodied, velvety and layered, with a fleshy core of fruit framed by rich, unusually suave and polished tannins in the context of recent vintages at this address. It's a blend of 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Merlot and 4% Petit Verdot, with a pH of 3.85, quite typical for this address." 92-94, William Kelley, Wine Advocate
