The red wine Château Ducru-Beaucaillou, vintage 1989 from the winery Château Ducru-Beaucaillou has been rated in 2010 with 89 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon from the region St. Julien in France.
Medium ruby garnet, orange hue, broad ochre rim. Initially restrained on the nose, delicately tobacco-like, underlaid with fine plum confit, overall rather closed bouquet. On the palate, also somehow foamy, shows a tannic side like many other 89s, nuances of dark chocolate, lacks a little momentum and fruit, medium length, delicate nougat and caramel on the finish, medium length. To be enjoyed with caution +10
