Top-rated 96 Points, Wines Critic "Elegant and tasty showing a layered sensory profile rich in black prunes, blackberries, cherries, liquorice and cumin. Full bodied, well smoothed tannins of great craftsmanship and a truly precise, essential finale. Rich in pulp which moves in a wise yet modern way in the tasting. Better from 2026." - Raffaele Vecchione, Feb 2023

What The Critics Say
"Plenty of blackberry, blueberry, lead pencil and violet aromas here that follow through to a full body, with ultra-fine tannins that run the length of the wine. So integrated and polished. Changes a lot in the glass. Thoughtful young red. Try after 2027."

ABOUT THIS BRAND
Chateau Branaire-Ducru
Château Branaire-Ducru is located in the heart of the Medoc, between Margaux and Pauillac in the Saint-Julien appellation area. It is surrounded by the other great Classified Growths that populate this outstanding terroir.
The vines grow in a mixture of gravel and pebbles, deposited there by the River Garonne in the Quaternary Period. The vineyard is made up of around fifteen different micro-terroirs and covers 60 hectares (nearly 150 acres) that link from East to West across the Southern part of the appellation area. The average age of the vines is 35 years.
In the cellar, the wine is aged in oak barrels where it matures for at least eighteen months. The barrels are made from timber selected in the best French forests. 60% of them are renewed every year. The harvest is fully bottled at the Château.
