In 2022, Chateau Joanin Bécot shows a poised, vivid character, with bright red and blue berry fruit wrapped in notes of cedar, graphite and gentle spice. The palate is sleek and finely textured, medium to full in body, with juicy acidity and a fresh, mouthwatering finish that keeps this Merlot/Cabernet Franc blend feeling energetic rather than heavy.

Château Joanin‑Bécot is a Merlot‑led Castillon‑Côtes de Bordeaux from vines on limestone/clay soils—created by the family behind Saint‑Émilion’s Beau‑Séjour Bécot—offering plush black‑and‑red fruit, floral/mineral lift and velvety tannins, often partially matured in new oak for spice and aging potential; it’s frequently praised as a Saint‑Émilion‑like, high‑value Right Bank wine.
