Château Ducru-Beaucaillou
Château Ducru-Beaucaillou is one of the great references of the Saint-Julien appellation, a Grand Cru Classé in the Bordeaux region. Perched on an exceptional terroir with a breathtaking view over the Gironde estuary, Château Ducru-Beaucaillou has become a symbol of the Médoc over the years.

Today managed by Jean Eugène Borie SA, Château Ducru-Beaucaillou extends over 245 hectares, including 100 hectares of vines. Careful, rigorous attention to detail in both vineyard and winery contributes to the consistency of the AOC Saint-Julien Grand Cru Classé produced here. Château Ducru-Beaucaillou is a wine that rhymes with class and elegance.

"A monumental wine!"

"One of the greatest wines this estate produced in Bruno Borie's time. Ducru-Beaucaillou 2018 sneaks up on you with this fabulous, singular bouquet of spice, iris, violet, black cherry and cassis. The oak is perfectly integrated and intertwines with the graphite notes over time. The palate is concentrated and bursting with energy, but what really stands out is its disconcerting freshness and the finesse and precise contours of the tannic structure. An already profound wine that will reach new heights over the next 2 decades." (Decanter 2021) - Delivery in wooden case possible for orders of 6 bottles of this wine (depending on country and shipping method selected)

"A sophisticated wine - James Suckling "

" Really floral and pretty with currants, cherries and some violets and stones. Medium-bodied with a creamy texture. Attractive tannins and stone nuances. Great percentage of merlot with cabernet, making it fresh and firm. Sophisticated." (James Suckling 2022)

Château Ducru Beaucaillou 2012 - Grand Cru Classé

cabernet sauvignon
structured
persistent
pulpy

Château Ducru Beaucaillou 2012 presents a nose of rich black fruit aromas underpinned by a touch of spice. On the palate, the attack is round and greedy, with an imposing, pulpy yet nicely taut structure and velvety, suave tannins, for a pulpy finish with impressive persistence. This wine continually bounces back as you taste it, and never seems to want to leave you... Delivery in wooden cases for orders of 6 bottles of this wine (excluding Point Relais delivery).

"A newcomer to the Ducru-Beaucaillou stable, Le Petit Ducru was formerly known as Lalande-Borie. [...] Deep garnet in color, it leaps from the glass with wonderfully pure scents of black and red currants, black raspberries and blackberries, as well as suggestions of tobacco leaf, laurel and fertile earth. Medium- to full-bodied, the palate delivers juicy black fruit flavors that fill the mouth with supple tannins and just enough freshness, finishing with a herbal note." (Wine Advocate 2020) Delivery in wooden case for all orders of 6 bottles of this wine (excluding Point Relais delivery method).
