Chateau Beychevelle Amiral de Beychevelle 2018 shows generous dark berry and plum fruit wrapped in notes of cedar, dried herbs and a touch of savory spice, all carried by firm yet refined tannins. The palate is mouthfilling but well-judged, with a juicy core and a clean, flavorful finish that already gives pleasure while hinting at further harmony with a few more years in bottle.
Grilled lamb chops with rosemary, Roast duck with thyme and garlic, Aged Comté or Gruyère

Amiral de Beychevelle is the refined second wine of Saint-Julien fourth growth Château Beychevelle, crafted from a dedicated gravel-soil vineyard and vinified with the same meticulous care as the grand vin. Typically Cabernet Sauvignon–Merlot led with touches of the other Bordeaux varieties, it offers a more immediate, radiant expression of the estate’s style—floral and spicy, with supple, silky tannins and fresh, juicy fruit—made to drink earlier yet still capable of graceful medium-term aging.
