"The 2016 les Beaumonts here is also outstanding. The nose delivers a fine constellation of black cherries, plums, raw cocoa, gamebird, dark soil tones, a touch of cedar and plenty of upper register smokiness. On the palate the wine is deep, full and still quite primary, with a sappy core, excellent soil signature, ripe, suave tannins and a very long, pure and dancing finish. The inherent elegance of the 2016 vintage has really worked its magic on this excellent Beaumonts!"
