Ripe red and black fruits, leafy herbs, and crushed stone define the aromatics of the 2024 Château Joanin Bécot. It hits the palate with medium-bodied richness, a pure, layered, elegant mouthfeel, ultra-fine tannins, and a great finish. The tannin quality here is superb. Tasted twice with consistent results.

More somber and brooding than in previous vintages, the 2024 Joanin Bécot opens with aromas of cassis, violet, iris and dark berries followed by a moderately weighted, supple and juicy palate, framed by vibrant acidity, concluding with a long, ethereal finish. Despite the challenges of the vintage, Juliette Bécot has crafted a perfumed, punchy and elegant expression of Castillon that stands out for its finesse and energy.

Truffle, flowers, and black cherries form the core of this wine. The palate is fresh and fruity, with loads of charm, leaving you with strawberries, and cherries in the mid-palate and in the finish. The wine is a blend of 85% Merlot, and 15% Cabernet Franc. The wine is produced from some of the oldest vines in the appellation, with the vines dating back to 1870!
