Château Ducru-Beaucaillou--Vintage 1985
Saint-Julien, 2me cru classé
Good appearance. Levels into neck
Tasting note: For sheer elegance, charm, and finesse, the 1985 Ducru-Beaucaillou has it all. The wine is close to full maturity, yet retains a vibrancy and youthfulness that is unusual for a 1985. The generous flavors are soft, but not flabby. The wine possesses outstanding concentration yet is elegant and refreshing. This is a beautifully knit, harmonious Ducru. Anticipated maturity: Now-2010. Last tasted 3/97. 92 points. Robert Parker. Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition # B1 (Jan 1998)
