A rare mature Bordeaux from one of Saint-Julien’s historic classified growths, the 1956 Château Beychevelle comes from one of the most challenging vintages of the twentieth century. Severe winter frosts followed by a cool, difficult growing season significantly reduced yields and produced lighter, more delicate wines throughout Bordeaux. Bottles that have survived in excellent condition are prized today for their rarity and historical significance rather than sheer power or concentration.
Producer Information
Château Beychevelle is a well-regarded wine estate based in the Saint-Julien appellation of Bordeaux's northern Haut-Médoc wine region, on the left bank of the Gironde estuary.. The estate's flagship, Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant, wine is known for its supple power and smooth, rich texture, and better vintages have great aging ability. In the Bordeaux Classification of 1855 it was ranked a fourth growth. The 250-hectare (620-acre) estate is situated in the extreme southeast of the Saint-Julien appellation, just outside the small commune of Beychevelle. The château building lies just east of Branaire-Ducru and south of Ducru-Beaucaillou. The name Beychevelle comes from the first Duke of Epernon, a navy admiral who owned the estate in the 16th Century. Boats that passed on the Garonne had to lower their sails in deference and the term "Baisse-Voile" (lowering of sails) became Beychevelle. This nautical theme extends to the ship with a griffin prow featured on the label.
