Wine Description
Deep garnet in colour, the 2022 La Croix Ducru Beaucaillou opens with a seductive bouquet of blackcurrant, crushed violets, and dark plum, interwoven with graphite, cedar, and subtle vanilla spice from new oak ageing. On the palate, it delivers richness and refinement in equal measurefull-bodied yet impeccably structured, with layers of ripe blackberry, cassis, and mocha supported by firm but polished tannins. The finish is long, savoury, and mineral-driven, showcasing Saint-Julien’s hallmark finesse.
