Château Beychevelle 1982 comes from a great Bordeaux vintage and was rated 94 points by Robert Parker. Château Beychevelle is a sight for sore eyes – a wonderfully elegant Bordeaux château built in the style of Louis XV, set amongst beautifully manicured gardens dating back three centuries. It commands an impressive 250 hectares (90 of which are planted with vines). Reviews.. "Beautifully sweet, slightly herbaceous black currant, licorice, and earthy notes emerge from this nearly opaque, dark ruby/purple-tinged 1982. Compared to the more elegant, feminine-styled wine often produced here, it is a beast. Dense, thick, rich, concentrated, and impressive, it can be drunk now and over the next two decades." eRobertParker.com (June 2009)
