2019 Right Bank Highlights

2019 is one of the most dramatic Bordeaux vintages in recent history. For one, the En Primeur campaign went live during the first lockdown, and we at home lapped it up; not only was it fabulously lauded, but it was finally attractively priced. Today, we are highlighting three of our absolute favourites from the Right Bank: Troplong Mondot and Beau-Séjour Bécot from St Emilion, and La Conseillante from Pomerol, all priced extremely attractively for any savvy collector.

  • Neal Martin, January 2023, Score: 95

    The 2019 Beau-Séjour-Bécot just lacks a bit of energy on the nose, dusky black fruit, sous-bois and dry tobacco. Old school. The palate is medium-bodied with finely-hewn tannins, very well balanced, lovely purity with a caressing and persistent finish. Classy winemaking. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting. 2025-2050

  • Antonio Galloni, Januray 2023, Score: 96

    The 2019 Beau-Séjour-Bécot is a powerful, explosive wine. Dark fruit, chocolate, cured meats and earthy notes lend quite a bit of depth. Compared with its neighbors, Beau-Séjour-Bécot is dark, broad and broodingly tannic, sometimes more power than finesse. There is plenty of character, though. That much is evident. Beau-Séjour-Bécot speaks with authority as it commands attention. 2031-2049

  • Jancis Robinson, January 2023, Score: 17.5

    Tasted blind. Simple colour. Easy, relaxed, rich and round. Already fun to drink with good balance even without much evolution or nuance. Polished tannins. Sophisticated winemaking. Long. The opposite of showy.

  • William Kelley, April 2022, Score: 94+

    The 2019 Beau-Séjour Bécot has turned out nicely, wafting from the glass with aromas of cassis, wild berries, raw cocoa, spices and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, it's deep and layered, with a rich mid-palate that's underpinned by succulent acids and powdery tannins. Located opposite Château Canon on Saint-Émilion's limestone plateau, there's some significant restructuring going on in the vineyards here, and in the cellar, foudres, amphorae and once-used barrels complement new oak: the result is the best wines this estate has produced in the modern era.
