Description
// 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot, on gravel-sandy soils.
"The 2022 Beaumont has a tightly wound nose with blackberry, briar and light tobacco scents unfolding nicely with each swirl of the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannins. It’s quite structured and firm at the moment but will loosen up with time. Sapid and fresh, this is a delightful, traditional-styled claret that should age well in bottle." - 90 points, Neal Martin
"Clear and pure, a lovely clean juiciness though the lightness in terms of fruit density doesn't quite match the tannins, which although are fine are quite present and dense with touches of liquorice, clove, cinnamon and dark chocolate that dominate and make this quite serious. It doesn't feel overworked, but it's still a bit compact and spiced with clear power underneath, although there is refinement overall. Tasted twice. Harvest 19 September-5th October. Yields 28hl/ha." - 90 points, Georgina Hindle
"Ripe yet fresh and refined on the nose, showing cassis, berries, plums, a touch of wet leaves and dark chocolate. Juicy and tight on the palate with medium body and firm, chalky tannins. Good length and balance here. Cabernet sauvignon, merlot and petit verdot. Drink in 2026." - 92 points, James Suckling
