Château Beychevelle--Vintage 1978
Saint-Julien, 4me cru classé
Levels: eight top, two upper and two mid-shoulder
Tasting Note: Dark ruby/garnet with some amber at the edge, the 1978 Beychevelle tastes close to maturity. A lovely bouquet of ripe berry fruit, oak, and spice is followed by a wine that is slightly sweet, soft, and savoury, with some unresolved tannins. It remains a bit chunky, but is still satisfying and flavourful. Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book 3rd Edition (1998)
