Description

From Parker:

Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition # B1
Jan 1998 Robert Parker 92 Drink: 1997 - 2010
For sheer elegance, charm, and finesse, the 1985 Ducru-Beaucaillou has it all. The wine is close to full maturity, yet retains a vibrancy and youthfulness that is unusual for a 1985. The generous flavors are soft, but not flabby. The wine possesses outstanding concentration yet is elegant and refreshing. This is a beautifully knit, harmonious Ducru. Anticipated maturity: Now-2010. Last tasted 3/97

Aug 1993 Robert Parker 91 Drink: 1993 - 2010
The 1985 offers a wonderful, rich, ripe, generous, curranty fruitiness, medium to full body, a creamy texture backed by ripe tannins, and a long, balanced, impressive finish. This is one 1985 that may well turn out to be a clone of this property's 1953 - high praise indeed. Anticipated maturity: Now-2010. Last tasted, 1/93.
