Chateau Branaire-Ducru St Julien 375ml 2000
ChĂąteau Branaire-Ducru is situated on the opposite side of the road from ChĂąteau Beychevelle in the south of the St-Julien appellation. Patrick Maroteaux has owned the property since 1988 and he has invested heavily in new plantings as well as installing a spanking new cuvier and an ultra-modern chai.
Branaire-Ducru's 60 hectares of vineyards are planted with Cabernet Sauvignon (70%), Merlot (22%), Cabernet Franc (5%), and Petit Verdot (3%). The wines are matured in oak barriques (65% new). The proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend is even higher than that in the vineyards: 80-85% in most years, which is one of the highest in the MĂ©doc.
Branaire-Ducru produces a pure and classic St-Julien which is elegant, ripe, supple, and well-balanced. It is classified as a 4Úme Cru Classé.
