La Croix Ducru Beaucaillou 2015 Saint Julien
weiteres von
The 2015 La Croix de Beaucaillou has a very composed bouquet that captures the fruité of the vintage, almost lush, pure black cherries intermingling with cranberry and blueberry. There is a patina of new oak to be subsumed so it will certainly deserve three or four years in bottle. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin on the entry, cloaked by layers of slightly toasty black fruit laced with cedar, white pepper and a touch of Lapsang Souchong. This is very harmonious with great depth while maintaining superb precision on the finish. What a superb deuxième vin. -Neal Martin Februar 2018-
Dark berries, iron and hints of rust with some iodine. Full-bodied, round and juicy with a solid backbone of tannins and focus. This second wine of Ducru-Beaucaillou. Polished. Drink in 2021. Februar 2018

Rene Gabriel beschreibt den La Croix Ducru Beaucaillou 2015 wie folgt:
Dunkles Granat, recht satt in der Mitte, rubiner Rand. Süssliches, recht komplexes Bouquet, rotes Kirschenkompott und Milchkaffee. Im Gaumen wunderbar, zeigt eine erstaunliche Konzentration, ein richtiger Beerencocktail auf der Zunge und so ist das Finale dann schier überfruchtig. Der beste Croix Beaucaillou den ich je verkostet habe!

James Suckling beschreibt den La Croix Ducru Beaucaillou 2015 wie folgt:
A juicy and savory second wine from Ducru with lots of ripe fruit and spice character. Chocolate and walnut undertones. Full body, velvety tannins and a fresh finish

Neal Martin beschreibt den La Croix Ducru Beaucaillou 2015 im April 2016:
The 2015 La Croix de Beaucaillou is a blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot. It has a floral note on the nose: small black cherries, blueberry and wilted violets, the last becoming more intense as the initially tight-fisted wine opens in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannin. There is very well-judged acidity and its texture is harmonious and silky smooth. The quality is loaded more in the mouth than on the nose at the moment, but it is a seriously classy "deuxième vin" that just needs a little more persistence on the finish.
