[Amiral de Beychevelle 2017]
Located in Saint-Julien, Chateau Beychevelle is a renowned Bordeaux Fourth Growth estate, its characteristics honed over three centuries.In 1587, the estate belonged to Duc D’Epernon, the governor of the Bordeaux region at the time, who later became the commander of the French Navy. "Beychevelle" evolved from the French term Baisse-Voile (lower the sail), and legend has it that ships passing by the estate had to lower their sails as a sign of respect for the nobleman. Duc D’Epernon was very fond of this, so he decided that the estate's emblem would depict a dragon ship with its sails lowered, and he named the estate "Beychevelle."The wine label features the mythical creature "Griffin," which in mythology guards the wine cellar for the wine god, as the figurehead of the ship.In addition, Duke D’Epernon also built a luxurious palace, which has been preserved to this day.The architecture is magnificent, with a grand triangular wall at the top, flanked by wing-shaped carvings on either side, adorned with spiral floral designs and bottle-shaped motifs, creating a Baroque classical architectural style for the winery.
"Amiral de Beychevelle 2017 has charming juicy blackberry and plum fruit cores, with a hint of salinity, iron, and apple wood flavors." It has already integrated well, making it approachable now.
