Description
A fantastic opportunity for wine lovers to enjoy top-shelf claret, without having to pay a fortune! Château Ducru-Beaucaillou is "undoubtedly one of the jewels of Saint-Julien" according to Master of Wine David Peppercorn - and its younger sibling Croix de Beaucaillou benefits from the same first-class treatment.

Made in château style - Croix de Beaucaillou matures far quicker than its first-growth sibling - meaning that you don't have to wait ten years to enjoy it. Scoring a respectable 88-points from Robert Parker, the wine exhibits a full and splendid nose of blackberry, cedar and mint.
