- 2001 Château Beau-Séjour Bécot - France, Bordeaux, Libournais, St. Émilion Grand Cru (5/17/2009)
Started out very, very oaky on night 1. Tonight, after an extra day of aeration in the cellar, this was much better. Although nobody would mistake this for traditional St. Emilion wine, this was nevertheless good. Cassis, blackberry, plum, and a very round and supple texture made this a fine drink, although not mind-bending. Has 5 years left in the tank before going into decline, but it's ready to drink now. I could be wrong, but I think the oak will integrate with some more time.
