A renaissance is taking place at this estate, managed by the sister of Gerard and Dominique Becot, the proprietors of Beau-Sejour-Becot. The 2001 is dense, exuberant, fleshy, and flamboyant, exhibiting a dense ruby/purple color along with rich layers of blackberry and cherry fruit, plenty of toasty new oak, and an uncomplicated, in-your-face style that will receive a lot of attention. Cynics may think it is too internationally styled, but there is a lot going on. Enjoy it over the next decade.
Raw, red fruit nose. Lots of acidity and raw tannins. Hard work. (JR)
Good core of fruit in this young St.-Emilion with berry and mineral character, medium body and lean tannins. Should mellow with bottle age. Best after 2007. 3,165 cases made. James Suckling, WIne Spectator 2004.
