The charm of a well-rounded and delicate Saint-Julien
A magnificent reference of Saint-Julien, Le Petit Ducru de Ducru-Beaucaillou, which replaces Chateau Lalande-Borie, is famous for its wines, which express the typical style of the emblematic appellation located on the left bank of Bordeaux.
Blending 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, the Chateau Lalande-Borie 2018 is aged for 12 months in Bordeaux barrels of 225 liters (of which 30% is new wood and 90% second-use wood).
At the tasting, the Chateau Lalande-Borie 2018 presents a beautiful dark garnet red color. Intense and expressive, the aromatic bouquet opens with acidulously sweet red fruits, spices and violets. The vintage has a beautiful palate of great purity, ample and structured, filling the mouth with its round shape and juicy fruit. At once delicate and precise, the palate stretches into a long, harmonious and balanced finish. An out-of-the-ordinary and delicious vintage of Chateau Lalande-Borie, ready to enjoy now or kept to evolve with age.
