2016 Château Ducru Beaucaillou 2. Cru Saint-Julien

There is a good reason that Château Ducru-Beaucaillou is called Saint-Juliens Lafite-Rothschild. The château always produces wines with enormous finesse and elegance and often has the same quality level as Premier Crus - if it doesn't beat them by far. In recent years, the results have been so exceptional that the château has been elevated to cult status, making the wines almost unobtainable. Le Grand Vin is the epitome of Saint-Julien and Ducru-Beaucaoillou; elegant, graceful, powerful and concentrated.
