Winemaker and Vineyard: The wines of La Croix Ducru-Beaucaillou come from the vineyard of Château Ducru-Beaucaillou. This exceptional Medoc vintage is spread between the river to the East and the center and West of the AOC Saint-Julien area. The estate owes its name to its "beautiful pebbles" which, due to their quartz predominance, give poor soils. It is precisely this "agrological" poverty, as Professor René Pijassou wrote, which gives them great value for wine production. To the East, the plots occupy Medoc hills just above the estuary while those of the epicenter benefit from a microclimate created by the small stream of La Mouline which crosses the appellation in its center, from west to east, to throw itself into the Gironde.
Service: Serve at room temperature (16-18°) to accompany a leg of lamb with garlic and rosemary.

Notes of red fruit with hints of mocha. Medium-bodied, fresh and well-balanced.
The best wines this estate has produced in the modern era. (William Kelley)
The Leoville Las Cases offers a brilliant fruit with intense aromas, freshness, very tasty and long tannins, all for an exceptional ageing capacity.
<div class="text-base my-auto mx-auto pt-12 [--thread-content-margin:var(--thread-content-margin-xs,calc(var(--spacing)*4))]...
Very black coffee on the nose. The wine is dense and quite tannic, with an unusual roundness from Merlot. A chameleon-like wine.
Hearty wine, elegant tannins, pine resin and roasted flavour; goes well with game.
Atypical, a dark black color, developing complex roasted aromas, as well as black berry, vanilla and spicy notes.
An aristocratic wine, taut, racy, juicy, highly digestible, with supple tannins and a velvety feel. An immense success.
