Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou is named after the beautiful, large stones found in its unique wine-growing terroir. This exceptional ecosystem produces fine, elegant, tasty wines with a long finish - in short, archetypical Saint-Julien wines.
Perched on an exceptional site with incomparable views over the Gironde estuary, in the center of a hundred-year-old park, Ducru-Beaucaillou is a majestic, Victorian-style castle, which has, over time, become one of the great symbols of the Médoc. Unusual for Bordeaux, it is built directly above the barrel cellars, enveloping its owners, who have lived here for over sixty years.
The 2016 La Croix Ducru-Beaucaillou Cuvée Colbert has a medium to deep garnet-purple color and nose of cassis, kirsch and dark chocolate with an undercurrent of licorice and earth. Medium to full-bodied, firm and grainy, the palate is elegant and pure, finishing long and minerally.
