Another impressive 2020, really one to look out for, standout in texture and character, brambled black fruits, liqourice and fine confident tannins. Great value, one to watch. Terra Vitis. No need to wait years to enjoy this - those black fruits are young but fleshy, and can be enjoyed with a carafe over the next dedade. 91 points

"A good solid Haut-Médoc" is how I described the 2020 Beaumont when I tasted it from barrel. I`ve no need to alter that summation. A mixture of red and black fruit on the nose, this feels cohesive and detailed, not powerful yet it engages the senses. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit. There is just a slight bitterness that lends tension, quite sharp with black cherry, orange rind and cedar notes towards the finish. It`s not going to win the wine of the vintage but it`s a…well, I told you at the beginning. 89 points

The 2020 Beaumont is fabulous in the way it marries power and finesse. Crushed red berry fruit, charcoal, dried flowers, spice and tobacco lend notable complexity. The 2020 has lost some of its youthful fruitiness, but none of its charm or pedigree. This is beautifully done. 92 points
