Second Growth. Deuxieme Cru Classe in 1855. Second Cru by Denis Dubourdieu.
Critic tasting note: "A fresh and aromatic bouquet sets off this light, dancing style of wine. It has acidity and a lemon curd flavor, proving to be sweet and citrusy at the same time. It's developing well." - 91/100, Wine Enthusiast
