Our opinion on the vintage
Château Beynat
On the slopes of Castillon-Côtes de Bordeaux, Château Beynat offers a measured and accessible interpretation of Merlot, the estate's predominant grape variety. The vineyard is planted on gently sloping hillsides, characteristic of the area, which promote gradual ripening and natural balance.
The estate is managed biodynamically, an approach that here translates into a quest for stability and continuity rather than stylistic flourishes. Winemaking favors gentle extractions and carefully controlled aging, allowing the wine to evolve slowly and smoothly. Some cuvées express themselves in a fuller register, while others develop more focused profiles, marked by a subtle minerality.
The wines are distinguished by their calm progression and aging potential, with a restrained yet persistent expression. The entire body of work at Château Beynat offers a unique interpretation of Castillon, based on precision, restraint, and enduring elegance.
