Duluc de Branaire-Ducru 2019 750ml

If the mild weather at the end of the winter fostered an early budburst, the cool and wet spring slowed down the growth, resulting in mixed flowering as well as coulures on some plots. The summer heat allowed the vine to catch up. Marked until the harvest, water stress was ideal to ensure an optimal ripening of the grapes. Starting on 19 September with enticingly rich and concentrated merlots, the harvests were punctuated by rainy episodes, fostering fine tannins and a moderate sugar content. Despite average yields, the health status is perfect and the harvested grapes are of great quality.
