The color of the 2004 is deep in color, with a lovely hint of garnet. The nose is complex, its numerous traits dominated by a note of fresh black fruits (blackberries, black cherries) but also with an elegant touch. The attack is gentle and supple, full and generous in the mouth thereafter, and finally yielding true voluptuous sensations in a very long finish. It seems to be a great Ducru, able to reach great heights!
Bordeaux wine, the "King of Wines", is any wine produced in the Bordeaux region of France, the largest wine growing region in the world. The majority of wine produced in this region is red. People usually think of the classic red blend "Bordeaux wine". There are, however, notable dry white, rose and sparkling wines that make up the remainder. Bordeaux counts for one third of the good quality french wine.
These wines are rich and complex, and go especially well with lamb and poultry. The color tends to be a garnet/ruby shade. The flavor is typically a light one, with blackberry, black fruits, wood, and other notes. Read More...
