Château Ducru Beaucaillou Haut-Médoc Madame de Beaucaillou 2024
Beautiful clarity of fruit, delivering lean but vivid cherry and spiced savoury plum, with tannins that are present but not overly tight. Harvested around 35hl/h yield, then ended up in the bottle at 20-25hl/h yield, giving you some idea of the sorting needed to tease out the best wines of the vintage. Increased footprint of vines, with 20ha added from the purchase of Chateau Doroux, in Cussac Fort Médoc, but still the final amount saw around 50% of the usual production. 11% press wine. 3.6 pH. harvest 22 September to 10 October, 20% new oak.
