The estate and its eponymous grand vin (the estate's principle wine) was rated a second growth in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification. It is often described as the quintessential Saint-Julien – deeply colored and powerfully ripe, yet balanced and harmonious. The grand vin usually needs 10 years of aging and can last for decades. A second wine, Croix de Beaucaillou, is also produced from the Ducru vineyard. The 75-hectare (185-acre) vineyard is situated in the southeast of the appellation, north of the village of Beychevelle and bordering Branaire-Ducru and Beychevelle to the south, with Léoville and Langoa Barton to the north. The Ducru-Beaucaillou château and estate lies relatively close to the broad Gironde estuary, which moderates the local microclimate and gives some protection from frost and hail. On the deeper gravel layers of the vineyard there is enhanced drainage, evening warmth, and a protective layer stopping the subsoil from drying out in heat waves.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-02-06T12:55:56-05:00","created_at":"2023-01-31T15:26:58-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou","Region_Bordeaux","RK3101","Source_Hedonism0123","Type_Red Wine","varietal_cabernet sauvignon","Varietal_Merlot"],"price":139899,"price_min":139899,"price_max":139899,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42753066958986,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2019 | Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou | La Croix de Beaucaillou (Double Magnum)","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":139899,"weight":48988,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/39_5271d6cf-8e5f-405a-ae52-eb925979da95.png?v=1675196879"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/39_5271d6cf-8e5f-405a-ae52-eb925979da95.png?v=1675196879","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2019 | Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou | La Croix de Beaucaillou (Double Magnum) at CaskCartel.com","id":24122912604298,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.476,"height":340,"width":162,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/39_5271d6cf-8e5f-405a-ae52-eb925979da95.png?v=1675196879"},"aspect_ratio":0.476,"height":340,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/39_5271d6cf-8e5f-405a-ae52-eb925979da95.png?v=1675196879","width":162}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2019 | Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou | La Croix de Beaucaillou (Double Magnum)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA young red with very pretty blackberries, blueberries and stone.
