From the Bruno Borie (Ducru Beaucaillou) stable, another immaculately made Margaux-styled wine from this home property of the Borie family. More linear and precise fruit than in the 2005 vintage, with very attractive and quite prominent new oak flavours and tannins which should integrate quite quickly to make this a very fine claret indeed. L&S (Jun 2010)

The lighter soils of Listrac seem to have exaggerated the acidity in this year. Bramble and bilberry are sweet on the nose but the acidity on the palate overpowers at this stage; sweeter ripe flavours begin to show through towards the finish giving a fragrant charm. 2010-16 Derek Smedley MW, www.dereksmedleymw.co.uk (Dec 2013)

Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc. A bit of obvious oak and chewy finish but certainly solid! If you like oak, you’ll love this. 2010-2015 Rating: 15.5 Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Nov 2011)

Wonderfully spicy, plummy nose with a hint of game. Velvet tannins and superb blackcurrant and blackberry flavours, and above all, juicy, mouthwatering acids. Long and fresh – try it with fatty rack of lamb. Adam Lechmere, Decanter (Jul 2011)

Château Ducluzeau

Chateau Ducluzeau is found on several plots spread over 10 hectares of land in the communal appellation of Listrac-Medoc. The vines are planted on a Plateau, 400 meters above sea level, on soil made up of light gravel with a clay-siliceous structure. The average age of the vines are 45 years old planted over a density of 10,000 plants/Ha (50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 50% Merlot). Often referred to as the feminine wine, the chateau was once passed down from mother to daughter for three generations. It is also made up of 98% Merlot giving the wine elegance and softness.
