1995 Ducru-Beaucaillou

[wondersofwine]

I rarely get to taste Bordeaux with some maturity, but this was a bottle shared at my table at the Open That Bottle Night at St. Jacques Restaurant in Raleigh. Don and Jessica, sitting to my right, brought this wine along with a younger Bordeaux. It had some nice secondary or tertiary mature odors and tastes with a tolerable amount of funk or barnyard. I was grateful to have a bit of it, especially when you consider the price it brings nowadays. This Chateau is considered a leading super second growth and is in the Saint Julien region.
