Château Beychevelle

Château Beychevelle, Fourth Grand Cru Classé of Saint-Julien since 1855, seduces with its history and elegance. The estate spans 90 hectares of Garonne gravel, primarily planted with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Nicknamed the “Versailles of Médoc,” it owes its name to Admiral Jean-Louis de Nogaret, whose coat of arms adorns the famous bottle with the ship. Owned by the Castel and Suntory group, Beychevelle combines tradition, precision, and modernity. Its wines, charming, silky, and balanced, perfectly embody the refined style of Saint-Julien.
