Le Petit Ducru de Ducru-Beaucaillou Saint-Julien

Bordeaux

Saint-Julien

Transparente sorte blåbær, en ganske pen finessed nese. Myk og delikat.

Smak av blåbær, rustikke solbær toner. Pene mineralske preg. Utrolig myk og elegant, konsentrert og strukturert. 

90-92p.

Expert

A blend of 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 5% Petit Verdot, the 2022 Le Petit Ducru is deep garnet-purple in color. It soars out of the glass with notes of black raspberries and juicy blueberries with hints of Sichuan pepper, aniseed, and wild sage. The medium-bodied palate has a real skip in its step, with refreshingly lively black fruits and a lightly chewy texture, finishing with a peppery lift. pH 3.77, TPI 86.

Clear density to the colour and the aromatics. Acidity is high but they have done a great job of turning that into a forward motion, giving a sense of structure and concentration. 30% new oak. Harvest September 23 through to October 11.

Inside Bordeaux

Wow, eksepsjonelt god vin, også spesielt til prisen!

Står at den skal kunne drikkes nå men er fortsatt ung, taniner er ikke full integrert enda.
Nydelig både lukt og smak. Tenk bjørnebær, deilig fersktrakta kaffe, plommer.
Syrlig, og tanin rik, men elegant og kompleks.

Har 2 flasker til og tenker og åpne de med 5.års mellomrom fra nå. 

Amatør

This first vintage under the new name, a slightly traumatic change (for me at least!) from Château Lalande Borie because I was a big supporter of the previous incarnation. This remains largely grapes from a 25ha plot on west side of St Julien, together with young vines from the Ducru estate (hence no longer qualifying for the château designation). Having said that, the quality is still brilliant, and it offers a clear reason to choose this wine as an approachable St Julien before heading upwards to Madame de Beaucaillou. Black fruits smothered in liquorice, dark chocolate shavings, cocoa beans, espresso, cassis. It has a clear link to Ducru, you get the shot of sexiness, the feeling that you are being invited in to the party. 30% new oak for 12 months.
