Le Petit Ducru de Ducru Beaucaillou Saint-Julien 2019 750ml
Winemaker Notes Deep purple colour with intense aromas of red and black fruits, crushed violets and a touch of mocha. The palate has generous ripe fruits and a plush, velvety texture supported by vibrant acidity, with fruits and spices that linger on the finish. Extreme refinement. Critic Notes Jeb Dunnuck writes: The 2019 Le Petit Ducru De Ducru-Beaucaillou is also Merlot-dominated and includes 36% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Petit Verdot. It offers classic Saint-Julien elegance and purity in its darker currant and cherry fruits as well as notes of tobacco, violets, and lead pencil. With medium-bodied richness on the palate, it has wonderful tannins, a balanced, layered mouthfeel, and outstanding length. It needs air to show at its best and is just a charming, elegant, layered 2019 to enjoy over any time over the coming decade. Drinking 2022 to 3032. - Jeb Dunnuck 91 Georgina Hindle writes: Lovely, fresh, delicate and fruity nose; smells quite rich and ripe. Good push of plush fruit
