CHÂTEAU DUCRU-BEAUCAILLOU 2000

Saint-Julien. 2ième Cru Classé
u. 3 x bn. 3 x scraped labels.

Composed of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Merlot, the medium to deep garnet-brick colored 2000 Ducru-Beaucaillou charges out of the gate with flamboyant scents of baked black currants, raisin cake, prunes, Chinese five spice and eucalyptus plus touches of cigar box, new leather and cast iron pan. Medium-bodied, the palate is remarkably refreshing with all these decadent spice and dried berries layers coating the palate, textured by soft, powdery tannins, finishing long and mineral laced. Stunning! August 2020 Drink: 2020-2040 WA 96
