Le Petit Ducru de Ducru-Beaucaillou, Saint-Julien 2023 En Primeur - Case of 6
FRANCE
The wine that used to be Lalande Borie is high in Merlot this year, and comes from 40 ha in Saint-Julien close to Lagrange. They had a lot of mildew problems but the resulting wine is juicy and generous, full of red plum and raspberry. Tight, tannic backbone with fresh damson and blueberry finish. A bit edgy but balance will be good, needs a bit of time. 3-9 years.

About En Primeur
Lying Abroad/En Primeur/In Bond Wines
Wines offered ‘Lying Abroad’ or ‘En Primeur’ provide a good way to secure some of the most sought after wines at opening prices.

Prices are clearly marked in our sales literature and are exclusive of duty, shipping, marine insurance and VAT. Shipment of claret and Port normally takes place around 30 months after the vintage, burgundy and Rhône usually more quickly. A second invoice for the duty, shipping, marine insurance and VAT on the value of the wine is charged at the time of shipment - view current duty rates. There are no further charges for deliveries to a UK mainland home or work address.
