What the critics say:
"The 2024 Ducru-Beaucaillou is a sleek, elegant wine. Silky tannins give the 2024 its distinctly mid-weight, lithe personality. Readers will find a gracious Ducru built more on persistence and nervy tension than size or opulence. Blue/black fruits, lavender, cloves, menthol and chocolate open over time. It will be fascinating to see how this ages."
"A gorgeously vivid, lifted nose, with floral aromatics, dark berry and cassis fruits, fleshy but understated, elegant and finessed, squid ink, sandalwood, incense, maintains estate signature and is full of pleasure, 100% new oak for ageing, 3.8 pH. Harvest 23 September to 7 October."
"Deep dark ruby, opaque core, purple reflections, delicate rim brightening. Spicy, nuances of charcoal and liquorice, a hint of cassis, blackberry confit, delicate hints of nougat and candied orange zest. Powerful, ripe berry fruit, fine acidity, red berry aftertaste, salty minerality, good length, sure maturity and certain ageing potential."
