Chateau Ducru-Beaucaillou Saint-Julien (Grand Cru Classe) 2009 750ml Schioppettino the wine is poised andThe 2009 Ducru Beaucaillou boasts a beautiful deep violet robe. In the mouth, it exhibits a thick and luscious structure, as well as dense, albeit velvety and elegant, tannins. Its fruit is at once rich and dazzling and its finish silky smooth and wonderfully persistent. Wine Advocate wa100 The 2009 Ducru Beaucaillou will eclipse the brilliant wines produced in 2005, 2003 and 2000. It will be interesting to see how the 2009 fares against the 2010
