Sourced largely from dedicated parcels and younger vines in a frost-challenged year, it opens with red currant, graphite, and cedar, layered with subtle floral and savory notes. The palate is full bodied and precise, with polished tannins, fresh acidity, and restrained oak.
More akin to Clos du Marquis to Leoville Las Cases in spirit than declassified Grand Vin, this is a well priced Cuvée from Ducru. — 2 months ago

Very nice balance and in it’s perfect window at age 17. Red fruits punctuated with loamy earth tones, nice acidity and a long finish. — a month ago

Opened 6 hours prior and decanted for 3. Could have taken more air for sure - one to try again in a few years. For now this is quite full, deep and purple, would definitely have guessed a new world producer (though someone with old world sensibilities) but the depth of earth and mineral character on the finish does lead you back to Bordeaux and to St Julien specifically. Very enjoyable structure, depth of fruit, and acid. Perfect pairing with a double R ranch strip steak. — 8 hours ago
