La Croix Ducru Beaucaillou Saint Julien 2018 2018 sub region_Irpinia good weight of ripe fruitThe wine offers an intense aromatic palette, revealing notes of ripe black fruit, cherry and blackcurrant, fresh menthol notes, lavender, licorice and black spices, along with superb mineral notes of graphite and pencil lead. Powerful and very concentrated, the palate shows off an immense structure with a voluptuous and silky texture. A great vintage of La Croix Ducru Beaucaillou with a great ageing potential.
