Super-second Ducru-Beaucaillou has, in 2019, under the control of the charismatic Bruno Borie, created one of the wines of the vintage. This will go down as one of the finest Ducrus that’s been made.
This wine is now sold out. Please get in touch with your advisor or one of our team on customercare@laywheeler.com or 01473 313 300 for more information or guidance on an alternative.
I tasted the 2019 Ducru Beaucaillou four times in 12-hour intervals from opening. It has a splendid bouquet centered around black fruit laced with graphite, Montecristo cigars and hints of sage and cedar. This is one of the most Pauillac-like Ducrus that I have encountered at this stage. The palate is medium-bodied with filigree tannins, pitch perfect acidity and a sensual, satin-like texture that could seduce from miles away. There is a sense of completeness surrounding this Second Growth, charming you surfeit with nobility and outstanding in terms of persistence. Fabulous.
