William Kelley im April 2022: The 2019 Beauséjour (Duffau Lagarrosse) has turned out beautifully in bottle. Wafting from the glass with aromas of wild blueberries, raspberries, violets, rose petals and forest floor, framed by a deft application of creamy new oak, it's medium to full-bodied, seamless and layered, with a lively core of fruit, bright acids and fine, powdery tannins, concluding with a long, precise, saline finish. It displays all the structural refinement and vibrancy of flavor that this sector of Saint-Émilion's limestone plateau is capable of.
James Suckling über den Chateau Beausejour Duffau-Lagarrosse 2019 Saint Emilion:9 Jan, 2022 – Blackberries and black chocolate with licorice and berry highlights. Flowers and crushed stones, too. It’s medium-to full-bodied with firm, creamy tannins and a flavorful finish. Plenty going on here. Very subtle and refined for this estate. Needs two or three years to come together. Try after 2024.
Jeb Dunnuck im April 2022:From one of my favorite châteaux on the Right Bank, the 2019 Château Beauséjour (Duffau-Lagarrosse) is 86% Merlot and 14% Cabernet Franc brought up in a mix of new and used barrels. It's a tighter, more closed 2019, yet it offers beautiful purity and focus in its cassis and black raspberry fruits as well as notes of tobacco leaf, graphite, chocolate, and chalky minerality. Rich, medium to full-bodied, beautifully balanced, and again, with this remarkable purity and precision, it has enough tannins to warrant 4-6 years in the cellar and will be incredibly long-lived. It's a beautiful Saint-Emilion. It’s worth pointing out that the 2019 is the vintage bottled by Nicolas Thienpont and starting in 2021, the estate is in the hands of Josephine Duffau-Lagarrosse.
Antonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Chateau Beausejour Duffau-Lagarrosse 2019 Saint Emilion:The 2019 Beauséjour Héritiers Duffau-Lagarrosse opens with good intensity, but its persistence trails off on the mid-palate and finish. I don't see the energy and vibrancy that are such signatures and that were quite present en primeur. Ultimately, the 2019 feels rather hollow on both the mid-palate and finish. Tasted two times.
Und Neal Martin (Vinous) zum Chateau Beausejour Duffau-Lagarrosse 2019 Saint Emilion:The 2019 Beauséjour Héritiers Duffau-Lagarrosse, matured in 60% new oak, has maintained wonderful purity on the nose of ebullient red cherries and crushed strawberry fruit, very elegant and poised and perhaps delivering less of the blue fruit element than I noticed from barrel. The cohesive palate conveys exquisite balance, fine, slightly granular tannins and a very subtle ferrous note toward the finish. This is an understated wine that is endowed with ample freshness, and I can see it aging beautifully for 30 or more years.
Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Beausejour Duffau-Lagarrosse 2019 Saint Emilion im Juni 2020:Composed of 86% Merlot and 14% Cabernet Franc. the 2019 Beausejour (Duffau Lagarrosse) was harvested from the 24th of September to the 7th of October. Yields were 45 hectoliters per hectare this year with about 60% of production going into the grand vin. Deep garnet-purple in color. the nose is deceptively forward to begin. giving a wonderful intensity of Morello cherries. wild blueberries and boysenberries scents. soon unfurling to reveal more and more layers: pencil lead. cast-iron pan. wilted roses. oolong tea and charcoal with a hint of garrigue. The medium to full-bodied palate is charged with energetic. crunchy black fruits. framed by firm. grainy tannins and tons of freshness. finishing very long and minerally. If this delivers on its promise. it should be very long-lived indeed! About 2.000 cases are anticipated to be made.
James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Beausejour Duffau-Lagarrosse 2019 Saint Emilion im Juni 2020:A smooth red. showing richness and strength. Blackberries. blueberries. hazelnuts and morel mushrooms. Full body and fine tannins. Solid length.
Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Beausejour Duffau-Lagarrosse 2019 Saint Emilion im Juni 2020:The 2019 Beauséjour Héritiers Duffau-Lagarrosse is shaping up to be magnificent. A wine of tremendous breadth and power. the 2019 has so much to offer. An infusion of scorched earth. gravel. spice. menthol and blackberry makes a strong first impression. Virile and potent. the 2019 offers remarkable persistence and yet retains quite a bit of finesse. especially given its size. The tannins are there. but they are matched by the intensity of the fruit. This is one of the most impressive wines of the year in the early going. Tasted two times.
Neal Martin bewertet den Chateau Beausejour Duffau-Lagarrosse 2019 Saint Emilion im Juni 2020:The 2019 Beauséjour Héritiers Duffau-Lagarrosse is endowed with precocious black cherries. kirsch and blueberry on the nose. Just a hint of menthol emerges with several minutes' aeration. The palate is beautifully balanced with fine precision. detailed and tensile with real quality stacked up towards the mineral-driven. lightly spiced and sophisticated finish. This year. it might just be pipped by Pavie Macquin. another Saint-Émilion managed by Nicolas Thienpont. nevertheless this has great potential and it should cellar for 30-40 years.
