Ducru-Beaucaillou 2015 is an iconic Grand Cru Classé from Saint-Julien. A majestic blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, aged in barriques, it reveals an intense ruby color. The nose offers complex notes of black fruits, cedar, and spices. On the palate, it is powerful yet refined, with silky tannins and a persistent finish. Ideal with red meats and aged cheeses, best after careful decanting.
