"This Merlot-dominated wine has a beautiful dark color and displays intense black fruit aromas with hints of clove. The palate is supple on the attack, full-bodied, round, fleshy, and spicy, supported by perfectly integrated tannins and prolonged by a beautiful fruity and slightly oaky finish. Remarkably well-balanced. (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2018)

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2020 guide) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, in line with what one would expect from its appellation(s))
About the estate:
This beautiful 380-hectare estate is one of the largest in the Bordeaux appellation. It includes Château Larroque, located south of Langon on beautiful clay-gravel soil, with a classic blend of grape varieties (45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, and 25% Cabernet Franc), Château de Beauregard-Ducourt, located south of Targon, with a balanced blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, as well as Château La Rose du Pin and Château d'Haurets. The wines are of consistent quality and highly classic in style. Powerful reds, very aromatic, energetic and refreshing whites, and delicious rosés. A truly beautiful range with character.

About the estate:
In 1858, the Ducourt family settled at Ch. des Combes, in Ladaux, a small village southeast of Bordeaux. Under the leadership of Henri Ducourt, who took over in 1951 and was later succeeded by his children and grandchildren, the family vineyard flourished, growing to its current size of 450 hectares spread across thirteen châteaux in the Entre-Deux-Mers and Saint-Émilion regions. The estate has been managed by Philippe Ducourt since 1980.

Even though it is inexpensive, this wine is not worth drinking. It is bland.

At this price, this "little Bordeaux" is remarkable. Don't change a thing, especially not the price.
