Wine Advocate, #158(4/2005) Rating: 86 points Drink: 2005-2013
A plum/garnet evolved color leads to a relatively superficial, fruity wine with medium body, pleasant flavors, but no real persistence, depth, or complexity. Drink it over the next 7-8 years. Beychevelle remains the most conspicuous under-achiever in the otherwise brilliant appellation of St.-Julien- Robert Parker
Wine Spectator (3/31/2005) Score: 88
I like the aromas of ripe fruit and plums. Medium- to full-bodied, with a solid core of tannins and a medium finish. A bit austere. Best after 2007. 22,165 cases made. –JS
Decanter Rating：
Big, fleshy, oaky nose dominated by wood now but plenty of fruit. Rich, rounded, plump, forward, concentrated, spicy, lively acidity. Good length. Drink 2009-20. (16 points) |
