Croix de Beaucaillou 2010 Red (Saint-Julien)

No longer a second wine of Ducru-Beaucaillou, but a wine from its own separate vineyard, Croix de Beaucaillou is impressive. Firm while also rich, it is firmly tannic, superripe and packed with great dark plum and berry fruits. Fruit and structure well balanced together.  — R.V.  (5/1/2013)

Croix de Beaucaillou 2010 Barrel sample Red (Saint-Julien)

  • Online Exclusive
91-93 This is no longer a second wine, but a wine with its own portion of Ducru-Beaucaillou's vineyard. It is juicy, rich, without being overpowering. The acidity at the end is both very ripe and very fresh.  — R.V.  (6/25/2011)

91–93. Barrel sample. This wine is the second wine of Ducru-Beaucaillou, sourced from a vineyard in the heart of Saint-Julien. It's rich and dense, with plenty of firm tannins. The fruit is already delicious and ripe with black currant and berries.  — R.V.  (4/11/2013)

Croix de Beaucaillou 2008 Barrel sample Red (Saint-Julien)

  • Online Exclusive
90-92 Barrel sample. This is effectively no longer the second wine of Ducru-Beaucaillou, since it comes from its own vineyards. It is a dense, sculpted wine, formed around a core of chewy tannins. Currently impenetrable and black.  — R.V.  (12/31/2009)
