Château Ducru-Beaucaillou, Grand Cru Classe in the St-Julien appellation and one of the iconic historic estates of the Medoc. 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, here is a beautiful Bordeaux in its drinking prime. Boasting richness and depth, with floral complexity and inky blackcurrants.

The 2008 Ducru-Beaucaillou has a fresh and vibrant nose. Occasionally this can come across a little stemmy and maybe it does here, but it is a facet that I think lends complexity and intrigue, touches of brine combining wonderfully with the black fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, quite firm tannins. There is a solid backbone to this Ducru-Beaucaillou; maybe this bottle is just closing in a little and one that would have benefitted from more decanting (indeed, it develops more precision in the glass.) Very fine, but give it more time. Tasted at the Ducru Beaucaillou vertical at the château. Neal Martin21st July 2022
