2000 Château Branaire (Duluc-Ducru)St. Julien Red Bordeaux Blend more |
11/8/2018 - petenich Likes this wine: 92 pointsInterestingly after only about 30 minutes of air we're into a very balanced and approachable wine. I'm thinking this is solidly into the drinking window, decent nose, good mid, with depth and acid to clean up the finish. Still plenty of stuffing for at least 10 years, but not sure what else would develop by waiting longer. |
