Drank 2 bottles with a 3-3.5hr decant at cellar temp. Similar nose and pallet to my previous note. This was in a really nice spot though.. very well integrated.

23112023 - Ducru Beaucaillou dinner at Potager KL. Beautiful and so elegant from start to finish. Dried red fruit, violet notes, cassis with delicious pencil box & savory mushroom notes. Really enjoyed the acidity & the depth from the complex finish. Surprised that there is still so much freshness from this 17 year old bottle

Deep garnet. Delightful nose with layers of blackcurrant, fine spices, leather and tobacco. A touch of forest floor. Very refined on the medium bodied palate with tannins which have started to soften. Long smoky finish. Drink now or hold.

Full-bodied, firm, classic, tannic, moderately austere in character, with a bright, cranberry, and red currant core of fruit that will remain on the firm side. The wine remains youthful and should age for decades while retaining its classic character. Drink from 2023-2045.
