Duluc de Branaire-Ducru

Duluc de Branaire-Ducru is the second wine of Château Branaire-Ducru, a Grand Cru Classé winery in the Saint-Julien appellation, Bordeaux. This wine is made from younger vines on the same terroir and thus offers an accessible expression of the Saint-Julien style. The blend consists mainly of Cabernet Sauvignon, with additions of Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc, which provides a deep red color and a bouquet of ripe black fruit, cedar and subtle spices. In the mouth it is elegant and soft, with ripe tannins and a balanced structure, which gives a refined, silky finish.
