Château Ducru-Beaucaillou--Vintage 1970
Saint-Julien, 2me cru classé. Château-bottled
Slightly corroded capsules. Bin-soiled and damp-affected labels. Levels top-shoulder or better
Lots 337 and 338 repacked from original wooden cases
Tasting note: "Consistently one of the very best wines of this vintage. With Latour and Cheval-Blanc I rate it the best of all the '70s. An amalgam of conflicts vigerous, rip-roaring fruit yet with delicacy. Maturing gracefully. Last tasted September 1999. M.B.
