Once again,this wine is of first-growth quality,not only from an intellectual perspective,but in its hedonistic characteristics.
More open-knit and accessible than the 1996,Ducru's 1995 exhibits a saturated ruby/purple color,followed by a knockout nose of blueberry and black raspberry/cassis fruit,intertwined with minerals,flowers,and subtle toasty oak.
Like its younger sibling,the wine possesses a sweet,rich mid-palate (from extract and ripeness,not sugar),layers of flavour,good delineation and grip,but generally unobtrusive tannin and acidity.It is a classic,compelling example of Ducru-Beaucaillou,that should not be missed. Anticipated maturity: 2003-2025.Last tasted, November 1997. (94 Points). Robert Parker. (Bordeaux. A Comprehensive Guide. Third Edition).
