Critics Scores
Wilfred Wong of Wine.com
A stunning effort, the 2014 Château Beau-Séjour Bécot deftly combines extraction with elegance. Over the last three decades, the winery has sometimes produced wines that were just a bit too concentrated. In this vintage, they have done what it took in both the vineyards and in the winery and made a wine that has reached another level. Showing beautifully ripened red fruit flavors, an accent of sweet oak, and a suggestion of violets, I would pair it with a crown roast of lamb. (Tasted: January 27, 2017, San Francisco, CA)
James Suckling
Solid and tight with tangy acidity and tannins. Full bodied and chewy. Range: 90-91
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2014 Beau-Sejour Becot was tasted on two or three occasions. It has a generous and sensual bouquet with ample macerated red cherries, wild strawberry, vanilla pod and orange sorbet aromas. This is endowed with superb delineation and focus. The palate is medium-bodied with filigree tannin, beautifully integrated new oak, real depth and focus. You could argue that it needed to demonstrate more persistence on the finish but that would be clutching at straws. There is so much freshness and vivacity in this Saint Emilion that it really is a must-buy.
Wine Spectator
This delivers a vibrant core of raspberry and boysenberry preserves, freshened with hints of mint, savory and tobacco, all carried by fine threads of charcoal through the finish. Reveals a lovely tug of sweet earth at the end. Best from 2022 through 2032.
Wine Enthusiast
While this powerful wine does have considerable over-extraction, it also has swathes of ripe berry fruits. There is enough fruity richness that it should eventually dominate the tough structure and harmonize; it just needs time. Barrel Sample: 93-95
