Ducru Beaucaillou

1986 {(currentVariant.size?' | ':'')} {( currentVariant.size )}

Saint Julien, Medoc, Bordeaux, France
Type Red
Grape Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot
2nd Growth
Reviewer: Neal Martin

The 1986 Ducru-Beaucaillou has been variable over the years due to the roof taint. This one? Well, it is not offensive, but it is rather innocuous, anonymous for such a great Left Bank vintage, lacking delineation and intensity. The palate is medium-bodied with light tannins, simple but balanced with a slightly tart finish. I would happily drink it, but considering the stature of both château and vintage, it ought to have been miles better. Tasted at the Ducru Beaucaillou vertical at the château.
