Le Petit Ducru Beaucaillou 2021

So floral and aromatic, expressive and perfumed with sweet blackcurrant touches. Cool blue fruits; blueberries, plums and damsons, this is slightly sombre, dark and heady with a fresh minty-liquorice and crushed stone texture giving an appealing salinity.. This has a nice weight in the mouth – it’s filling but delicately presented with spiced nuances. Quite strict on the mid palate, some tension coming through though has good energy and nice overall polish. Drinking Window: 2024-2035. Score – 90. (Georgina Hindle, decanter.com)
