From the Côte de Castillon – on the eastern end of the same limestone plateau that Beausejour is on in the west. Sweet approachable red fruit, plummy without being overripe, with soft macerated strawberries and raspberries too. A core of limestone minerality lends a sense of freshness and helps the wine feel very comfortable in its own skin already. Fabulous balance and wonderful tension make this incredibly moreish and appetising. A fantastic showing of all the Becot wines in this vintage.
The 2025 Joanin-Bécot is fabulous. Dark and sumptuous, with gorgeous fruit purity, the 2025 is positively stellar. I don’t think I have tasted a Joanin-Bécot with this much intensity and sheer textural presence. Inky dark red/purplish fruit, spice, new leather, dried flowers and lavender open first, followed by a range of floral and savory Cabernet Franc overtones. Clay-rich soils lend notable breadth and presence. The resonant, expansive finish is stunning. Drink 2028-2040.
