Product Description
VM96 "The 1995 Ducru-Beaucaillou has a fabulous bouquet, complex and harmonious, very pure with scents of blackberry, cassis, violet and iris flower. It just blossoms in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with edgy tannins and a fine bead of acidity. Vibrant, deep and complex with gentle grip, it fans out wonderfully towards the finish. Outstanding" NM for VM Oct. 2025.
RP95 "Proprietor Bruno Borie noted this was a somewhat unusual blend this year: 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petit Verdot. After this vintage, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot would no longer be included in the blend. Medium to deep brick in color, the 1995 Ducru-Beaucaillou explodes from the glass with bombastic notes of Indian spices, plum preserves, fruitcake and dried figs with nuances of potpourri, star anise, bouquet garni and espresso. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is chock-full of exotic spices and preserved black fruits, framed by firm, finely grained tannins and bold freshness, finishing with epic impact and length. Mature and drinking well now, there's still a good 12-15 years of kick left in this thoroughbred." LPB for TWA Aug 2020
LP95 "The 1995 Ducru-Beaucaillou is composed of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petit Verdot. Medium brick colored, it strides from the glass with confidently mature notes of prunes, stewed raspberries, and dried cherries, leading to underlying tobacco leaf, iron ore, sandalwood, and clove oil hints. The medium-bodied palate is soft and refreshing, expressive of exotic spices and earthy nuances, finishing with a minerally whisper." LPB for TWI Mar 2024
