Grape

Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot

Description

90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot. As far as we were concerned this was one of the stars of the vintage. The nose is classic Ducru - very expressive with violets, pencil lead and blackcurrant. On the palate there is a good density, ripe tannins and real poise. Alongside Las Cases this was the most successful Cabernet Sauvignon outside of the first growths, the result of a huge amount of work in the vineyard. Drink 2014-2024. 17.5 points (out of 20)

Press Reviews

  • "No review. 90-92 points."

  • "Pretty dark, opulent crimson. Scented. Rather compact. Inky and savoury and there's a recognisable relationship with the grand vin in other vintages. Good! Appetising - I think that's the first time I have written that about the 07s. Quite interesting rather than super sweet. Fleshy. Good dust! Long and well balanced. 17- points (out of 20)."

  • "A solid wine, with plenty of rose petal, berry and currant character. Full and chewy. Ripe and very powerful. Wait and see, but impressive for the vintage. 89-92 points."
