The Beychevelle 1983 was served from ex-chateau double magnum at the Academie du Vin dinner…wow! I have had this several times from bottle, but this large format was in another league. The nose is vital and vivacious with attractive crisp blackberry and raspberry fruit, cedar, undergrowth and cigar box. The palate is beautifully balanced with the opulence you might expect to find on a 1982. There is a sense of bravado about this Beychevelle and a self-assurance that it is a great Saint Julien. Superb – this is a buccaneering Beychevelle!
