This is Ducru Beaucaillou's luxurious Bordeaux made with fine Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, aged in 95% new oak. The deep dark cherry colored wine is well defined with minerality, boasting with dried herbs, wood underneath the enticing fruit aromas. The full-bodied Bordeaux gives a crisp entry and firm tannins with juicy, nicely-integrated blackfruit flavors, intense and pure with a dry finish. This Bordeaux is exquisite to be paired with red meat, smoked meat and hard cheeses.
