Chateau Ducru-Beaucaillou, Saint-Julien, France 2016 Chateau Palmer dominated by Cabernet SauvignonSuper perfumed, attractive violets with a thread of fresh blueberries, cassis, blackberries and dark plums, delivering a very enticing impression. Beautiful ripeness here. The tannins are perfectly ripe and layers meld into each other, carrying deep, graceful and plush, velvety dark fruit long into the vibrant and seductive, chocolate laced finish. Great potential. 99 Pts James Suckling
