Abfüller Informationen

Château Branaire-Ducru, 1 Chem. de Bourdieu, 33250 Saint-Julien-Beychevelle, FR

The St. Julien 4 GCC 2021 from Château Branaire-Ducru shines in an intense, deep ruby red. Its bouquet is rich and complex, with aromas of black cherries, cassis and hints of violet, complemented by subtle notes of cedarwood and tobacco. On the palate, it is powerful and elegant at the same time, with firm but fine tannins, well-integrated acidity and a long, silky finish that reveals nuances of dark

chocolate and spices.

This fine wine consists primarily of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Cabernet Sauvignon gives the wine its structured, tannic base and intense aromas of dark berries. Merlot brings softness and fruitiness, while Cabernet Franc brings in elegance and a delicate spiciness. Petit Verdot rounds off the cuvée with deep color and intense,

floral notes.

The special feature of St. Julien 4 GCC lies in the careful selection of grapes and precise vinification. This care results in a wine that reflects the typical characteristics of its region of origin: elegant structure, deep fruitiness and remarkable longevity. The 4ème Grand Cru Classé (4 GCC) status, which was awarded as part of the 1855 classification, testifies to the outstanding quality of this wine. It is one of the best wines in the Bordeaux region and is appreciated by connoisseurs

all over the world.
