A wonderfully elegant Second Growth, Ducru-Beaucaillou is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc & Petit Verdot. Owning around 50 hectares of vines in St-Julien, the Chateau make wines which are recognisable as classic Bordeaux. As a result, they reward bottle ageing & a minimum of 5 to 10 years in the cellar before opening.

The 1994 Ducru-Beaucaillou came from a bottle in my possession for donkey's years. It has a dry and quite austere nose, black fruits, still with that odd, peaty aroma. The palate is medium-bodied and still contains a bit of flesh, though it is quite simplistic on the finish, and at the end of the day, serves as a mere footnote to the successful comeback vintage 12 months later. Bottles should be consumed in the not too distant future.Neal Martin21st July 2022
