Duluc de Branaire-Ducru, Saint-Julien, Bordeaux, France, 2009, 750ml

Ripe, fresh and decidedly forward in style, with a modestly tarry edge supporting the juicy blackberry, loganberry and mulled plum fruit flavors. Theres a lingering anise note, with enough grip to keep this honest. Drink now through 2020. – Wine Spectator 90
