The 2024 Joanin-Bécot is terrific. Supple and racy, with lovely depth, the 2024 exudes balance. Rose petal, lavender, red plum and blood orange are nicely pushed forward. This has lovely mid-palate presence, something that was hard to come by in 2024. Pretty floral notes extend the silky, effortless finish. Harvest for the Merlots started on September 28, very late by the estate's standards. Tasted two times.
More somber and brooding than in previous vintages, the 2024 Joanin Bécot opens with aromas of cassis, violet, iris and dark berries followed by a moderately weighted, supple and juicy palate, framed by vibrant acidity, concluding with a long, ethereal finish. Despite the challenges of the vintage, Juliette Bécot has crafted a perfumed, punchy and elegant expression of Castillon that stands out for its finesse and energy.
