Château Ducru-Beaucaillou--Vintage 2000
Saint-Julien, 2me cru classé
Tasting note: A stunning wine from Ducru Beaucaillou which showcases its great terroir, this elegant but substantial 2000 has a dense purple colour that has hardly budged since it was first bottled. Displaying a floral note, with hints of boysenberries, black raspberries, blackcurrants and a touch of background oak, the wine has superb concentration and density, but still has some substantial tannins that are not yet fully resolved. I originally predicted that it should be drinkable from 2010-2030, but I would modify that now to 2015-2035. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #189 Jun 2010
