Tasted April 2022. Plush and expressive with a core of soft, velvety blackcurrant fruit. More Cabernet Sauvignon than usual gives some additional structure with some firm tannins. Acidity is fresh and there's some cedar and clove developing.

The 2021 La Croix Ducru-Beaucaillou has a beautifully defined bouquet whereby the Cabernet Sauvignon rules the roost, imparting fine mineralité and an attractive marine influence, quite cool and classic. The palate is very saline on the entry, like walking down to the Gironde estuary on a winter's day—a wine evoking a sense of place. Very delineated on the impressively persistent finish, this is a superb 2021 that will give 20 years of pleasure. This is just a whisker away in quality from the Grand Vin.
The 2021 La Croix Ducru-Beaucaillou is a dark, somber wine. Cabernet Sauvignon drives the blend, and that very much comes through in the wine's flavor profile and structural feel. Blue and black fruits, graphite, leather, menthol and spice abound. This is a very serious Saint-Julien.
