"Get ready for big Ducru drama: Strong carmine-garnet, ruby reflexes, delicate ocher border, rather dark color. On the nose inviting dark berry jam, delicate after with plums, some nougat, blackberries, but also the typical cedary tobacco nuances. Elegant on the palate, juicy and sweet, showing finesse, balanced structure, silky tannins, magnificent forest berry jam in the aftertaste. A perfectly aged wine, now offering greatest drinking pleasure, why should you wait?"

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
The world's largest fine-wine region, built around blends of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Divided by the Gironde estuary into the structured Left Bank and the plush, Merlot-led Right Bank, it is the historic benchmark for age-worthy claret and sweet Sauternes.
