Dried currants, stewed blackberries, praline, dried herbs and pencil lead on the nose. Raw cocoa, too. It’s full-bodied with firm, ultra fine tannins. Structured with excellent intensity and focus. Very polished. Try from 2025
Producer
Château Grand-Puy Ducasse
Planted across the best land in Pauillac, Château Grand-Puy Ducasse owns 40-hectares of vineyards consisting of three large plots bordering those of Mouton, Lafite and Pontet-Canet. The unusual scattered pattern of the property owes its brilliance to the estate’s founder Pierre Ducasse, a distinguished lawyer who pieced together this collection of lots with land he inherited or purchased in the 18th century. Currently under the ownership of a subsidiary of the Groupe Crédit Agricole, the CA Grands Crus company since 2004, the estate has entered a new phase, noted by the upswing in quality. Classified as a Fifth Growth in the famous 1855 ranking, the estate has now integrated certified sustainable farming and impeccable harvesting practices. Today, Château Grand-Puy Ducasse produces exemplary Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot blends made in the classic Pauillac style. Grand-Puy Ducasse, is a legendary fine wine, renowned for its aromatic complexity, glorious structure and ageing capacity.
