Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou 2022
Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou is a prestigious Second Growth estate located in the Saint-Julien appellation of Bordeaux’s Left Bank. Established in 1720, the estate has earned a reputation for producing some of the Médoc’s most elegant and age-worthy wines. Under the ownership of Bruno-Eugène Borie since 2003, the estate continues to blend tradition with precision viticulture and cutting-edge winemaking techniques.
Wine Description
The 2022 vintage of Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou presents a deep, opaque ruby colour with purple undertones. On the nose, it delivers a rich and complex bouquet of blackcurrants, dark cherries, violets, crushed stones, and subtle notes of graphite and cedar. The palate is full-bodied and structured, with layers of ripe black fruit, cassis, tobacco leaf, and dark chocolate, framed by refined tannins and vibrant acidity.

Food Pairing
