Château Ducru-Beaucaillou is a prestigious wine estate in the Saint-Julien appellation that was rated a Second Growth in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification. The property has been owned by the Borie family since 1942 and it is currently led by the charismatic Bruno-Eugène Borie. This release is the estate’s flagship wine from the 1995 vintage, a blend composed of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot. The wine is drinking beautifully now but with plenty of time for further development.
95 Vinous
The 1995 Ducru-Beaucaillou, matured in two-thirds new oak, has a very refined bouquet with blackberry, raspberry, rose petal and cedar aromas, very focused and sophisticated. The palate is well balanced with sour red cherries, balsamic and cedar notes, vibrant and full of energy, though you might well argue it doesn’t quite have the panache and complexity of ensuing vintages on the finish. But it is certainly ageing well and is drinking perfectly now. Tasted at the Ducru Beaucaillou vertical at the château. Neal Martin21st July 2022
