Ducru Beaucaillou (750ML)
From Saint-Julien
| Vintage: | 1970 |

| Description: | 92 Rp / 90 Ws. This wine has been fully mature and delicious for many years, so I was not surprised by how stunning this bottle was. It has always been an outstanding wine for the vintage - complex, rich, savory, and the quintessentially elegant Bordeaux. This beauty continues to reveal the fragrance and finesse that one expects from Lafite-Rothschild but so rarely finds. A fragrant, complex bouquet of cedar, herbs, vanillin, fruitcake, and coffee is followed by a soft, gentle, graciously-constructed wine with sweet layers of fruit. I am not sure how much longer the 1970 Ducru will keep, but from regular bottle, it is delicious and should be consumed. How nice it would be to have a stock of magnums of this wine in the cellar! Robert Parker, Wine Advocate. Polished, rich and full of life. Lovely plum and smoke aromas give way to ripe fruit flavors and firm tannins. - Wine Spectator |
