Wine Spectator, 96 for 2016 Chateau Branaire-Ducru, Saint-Julien, France 750ml at Fine Wines International

Tasting Note

2016 Chateau Branaire Ducru

2019 Wine Spectator Top 100 #16

The core of this red is loaded with pure plum, blueberry and black currant fruit flavors. The polished structure is integrated, with alluring ganache, anise and sweet tobacco notes throughout, all in a polished and balanced frame. A very classy red that isn't shy about its power but pushes its purity to the fore. Best from 2024 through 2039. - Wine Spectator 96 points
