Ducru Beaucaillou 2017
CRITIC REVIEWS
Tom Parker MW
Tasted blind. Deep ruby colour. Quite mineral and cool on the nose – there is a leafy edge of pencil shavings against fresh blackcurrant. Vibrant, lively fruit on the palate – a mix of red and black fruit together. The structure is sinewy, promoting more of the leafy, graphite tones. This is chiselled and firm for now, it will require patience. (TP)

The 2017 Ducru-Beaucaillou is the first wine of the fantastic vertical tasting held by Bruno Borie. It has both a deep and elegant bouquet of dark berries, blueberry, spices, and blackcurrant; as well as a fine palate, polished tannins, and a perfectly balanced texture. This is not the most perfumed of the line-up but both the texture and tension are very elegant. This is a worthy emissary of this underestimated vintage.
