CHÂTEAU BRANAIRE (DULUC-DUCRU) 2000
Saint-Julien. 4ième Cru Classé
u. 2 x bn. 4 x marked & stained labels. 2 x scraped capsules. 3 x scuffed capsules.
A beautiful wine from Branaire, the 2000 is close to full maturity, and should offer plenty of pleasure over the next 15-20 years. Its deep ruby/purple hue is accompanied by scents of boysenberries, black currants, and spring flowers. This medium to full-bodied, pure St.-Julien hits the palate with authority, displaying silky tannins as well as wonderful richness, depth, and texture. June 2010 Drink: 2010-2030 WA 94
