Chateau Beau-Site 2016 is one of this lovely Chateau’s best releases. The 2016 vintage has great freshness behind the ripe cassis fruit and attractive, glossy flavours of chocolate, coffee and dark damson. It is a wine that will benefit from some bottle ageing but it is clearly a great wine just now.
Château Beau-Site is amongst the very best Cru Bourgeois Chateaux and is one of a number of properties in Bordeaux that have been producing attractive wines at equally attractive prices for many years. The vineyards are on a very favourable site, situated on stony soils close to Chateau Calon Segur at one of the highest points in the Medoc. The Chateau was purchased by Philippe Casteja in 2002 and since then the wines quality and consistency has improved greatly.
