La Croix Ducru-Beaucaillou 2022

Bordeaux - Saint-Julien - 2nd Wine - Red Wine -

La Croix Ducru-Beaucaillou 2022 is the flagship second wine of Château Ducru-Beaucaillou. Sourced from carefully selected parcels of the Saint-Julien appellation, it delivers a more approachable expression of the estate’s style while retaining precision, freshness and refined elegance.

Tasting Notes

Appearance: deep, bright purple.
Nose: clean and expressive with blackcurrant, blackberry, dark cherry, floral notes, graphite and subtle oak.
Palate: broad and harmonious with fine, silky tannins. Dense yet balanced, supported by vibrant freshness and a long, elegant finish.

Terroir & Blend

Deep gravel soils typical of Saint-Julien, influenced by the Gironde estuary. Blend led by Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Merlot and a touch of Petit Verdot, providing structure, roundness and complexity.

Winemaking & Aging

Hand-harvested grapes, strict selection and parcel-by-parcel vinification. Aged in French oak barrels with a controlled proportion of new oak to preserve fruit purity and terroir expression.

Food Pairings

Perfect with roasted beef, veal chop, lamb, mushroom dishes, bistro cuisine or aged cheeses. Serve at 60–63°F (16–17°C). Decant for 1 hour.
