1975 Château Beau-Séjour Bécot
Opened by Allred at his 50th birthday dinner from magnum. A blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Decanted 3 hours before serving. I thought the 1975 Sterling Cab which was also opened was superior. This was the lowest scoring wine from this estate that I’ve had which includes the 1998, 2000, 2003, 2005, 2009 and 2018 but it was still fun to drink. This wine had some earthy red fruit notes but was a bit vegetal. Holding up well overall but obviously drink now. 88 points.
