1985 Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou
Description
A wine of extraordinary charm and elegance, the dark garnet-colored 1985 Ducru-Beaucaillou has a floral, cedary nose intermixed with red and black currants as well as flowers. The wine is fully mature and soft, with beautiful concentration and purity. It is not a blockbuster, and certainly not nearly as powerful and massive as the 1986, but it is certainly much more seductive.

Tasting note
1985年的寶嘉龍展現了聖朱利安葡萄酒的優雅與魅力。這款酒的香氣融合了森林地面、草本植物和櫻桃煙斗煙草的香氣，帶來一場感官之旅。口感中等飽滿，質地絲滑，單寧帶有一絲細膩的塵埃感，最後以可可粉和黑醋栗的餘韻作結。這個年份的葡萄酒已經完全成熟，是70%赤霞珠和30%梅洛的和諧混釀，在新法國橡木桶中陳年。它是一款真正體現獨特風土的葡萄酒，受到日爾曼河口的調節，並經過50多次人工干預精心打造。現在就享受這款葡萄酒的柔和優雅，因為它已達到了最佳表現。
The 1985 Chateau Ducru-Beaucaillou is a testament to the elegance and charm of Saint-Julien wines. With a bouquet that weaves together notes of forest floor, herbs, and cherry pipe tobacco, this wine is a journey through the senses. The palate is graced with a medium body, silky texture, and a touch of dusty tannins, culminating in a finish adorned with cocoa powder and cassis. This vintage, now fully mature, is a harmonious blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Merlot, aged in new French oak barrels. It is a wine that speaks of its unique terroir, moderated by the Gironde River estuary, and crafted with over 50 manual interventions. Enjoy this wine's soft elegance now, as it has reached its peak expression.
