2008 - La Croix de Beaucaillou
"A second wine has improved immensely under the administration of Bruno Borie, and the 2008 Croix de Beaucaillou is a sensual effort displaying sweet tannins, copious quantities of black currant and blueberry fruit, medium to full body, and a long finish with no hard edges. A blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Merlot, it should drink beautifully for 15 or more years."
-The Wine Advocate, 89-91 pts.
"Bright raspberry and blackberry aromas, with hints of mineral. Medium- to full-bodied, with layers of firm, slightly angular tannins and a mineral, berry aftertaste. Second wine of Ducru."
-Wine Spectator, 87-90 pts.
