Château Joanin Bécot, a superb Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux from the Bécot family. A rich, Merlot-led Bordeaux with silky tannins and excellent ageing potential. :

 

The stellar reputation of Château Joanin Bécot is a testament to the Bécot family’s commitment to quality beyond their Grand Cru Classé estate. Situated in Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux, this wine is a magnificent example of how traditional Bordeaux expertise can yield an accessible, yet deeply complex, luxury red.

Tasting Notes

A wine of serious depth, Joanin Bécot displays a striking, deep garnet colour. The nose is inviting and complex, showcasing concentrated black fruit-blackberry and plum-with secondary notes of fine oak, vanilla pod, and a hint of cedar.

• Colour: Deep garnet.
• Aroma: Concentrated black fruit, fine oak, spice.
• Taste: Full and generous on the palate. The texture is defined by smooth, polished tannins and a refreshing core of acidity, leading to a long, balanced finish.

Serving Suggestions

Best served at 16°C. We recommend decanting this wine for an hour before serving to allow its full complexity to unfold.

• Pairing: Slow-Roasted Lamb Shoulder, traditional Steak and Kidney Pie, or a robust cheese board with mature Cheddar.
• Ageing: Will cellar beautifully for up to a decade.
