Duluc de Branaire Ducru 2014 St-Julien
The 2014 vintage of Duluc de Branaire-Ducru, which is a blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 43% Merlot, 1% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot, offers an elegant bouquet of ripe red fruits, complemented by delicate spicy notes. On the palate, the wine is fleshy and vibrant, with crisp tannins that add structure and freshness. The finish is marked by a bright fruit character, providing a pleasant length that lingers.
The second wine from Chateau Branaire-Ducru, both wines are crafted to express a distinctive "home style." A portion of the vineyard, including the younger vines, contributes to the creation of Duluc de Branaire-Ducru.
