WINE | RED WINE | BORDEAUX | SAINT-JULIENBottle of : 0.75L
Cabernet-Sauvignon 80%, Merlot 20%
Three centuries of Bordeaux mastery
- Classified Second Cru in 1855, Ducru-Beaucaillou remains one of the Left Bank's most consistently elegant expressions. The 2022 vintage demonstrates the estate's unwavering commitment to finesse and terroir expression.
- The vineyard's distinctive gunz gravel—those beautiful quartz pebbles deposited by the ancient Gironde—imparts the mineral precision and structure characteristic of the finest St-Julien wines. This foundation shapes every vintage.
- This is a wine demanding patience. Opening too early would be to miss the unfolding complexity that defines a proper Ducru. Cellaring for a decade or more will reveal its full architecture and grace.

Product features : Château Ducru-Beaucaillou 2022 St-Julien Second Cru Classé 75cl
Breeding
100% in new French oak barrels of 225 litres for 18 months
On the eye
Deep ruby with an intense, luminous core
On the nose
Delicate violet and fresh blackcurrant lead to richer dark fruit—kirsch, blackberry coulis, blueberry—with undertones of cocoa bean, roasted coffee and subtle Asian spice: clove and cardamom
In the mouth
Remarkable precision with dense, concentrated fruit wrapped in a well-structured, silky tannin framework. Lovely freshness supports the palate's purity and striking persistence, with fine mineral grip and cassis purée well in evidence
Ducru-Beaucaillou 2022 is a wine of pure elegance, power and grace. The vintage shows the estate at its most refined: a St-Julien of classical proportion, where structure serves expression rather than dominating it. This is serious claret for the cellar, one that will reward patience with a decade or more of evolving complexity.
