Description

Château Ducru Beaucaillou 2005

St. Julien, 2ème Cru Classé


A little less than 10,000 cases were made, the smallest ever quantity, as selection became draconian for the grand vin. In 2015, this is truly top flight in every sense of the word. Complex, aromatic and noble bouquet, with massive, healthy fruit. Stunning opulence, freshness and all-enveloping fruit on the palate. Silky redcurrants. Really luscious and long - bingo! Serena Sutcliffe, MW

WA 97


葡萄經過極嚴格篩選令到產量只有不足一萬箱,是該酒莊有史以來最少的。此酒給人的第一印象是無可比擬的厚實緊緻。又帶有一絲雲呢拿的風味。多麼的柔滑同時卻又有嚼勁,兩種質感相輔相成、豐腴瑰麗。施慧娜(葡萄酒大師M.W.)
