Chateau Branaire Ducru Saint Julien 40-80 Creamy mousse dissolves into red"Beautiful blue fruits, tobacco, damp earth, and floral notes all emerge from the 2019 Chteau Branaire Ducru. It's medium to full bodied, flawlessly balanced, has silky tannins, and shows the quality of the vintage perfectly. A blend of 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc, it will benefit from 4 6 years of bottle age and cruise for two decades or more. It reminds me of the 2009." 96 Points, Jeb Dunnuck
