Note di degustazione
Old vintages of Branaire-Ducru can pull something sensational out of the bag…the 1955 is one of those occasions. The tightly wound nose unfurls vibrant red fruit, mint and cedar with aeration, verging on Pauillac-like in style with wonderful delineation and focus. The palate has a conspicuously sweet and ripe entry, perfectly poised with pliant tannins. This has a sense of precision that you would equate with a Second or even First Growth. A stately and stupendous showing. Tasted blind at the "five" dinner at Domaine de Chevalier.

Informazioni sul produttore
This Fourth Growth estate, just a stone’s throw from the wide expanse of the Gironde estuary, has been revitalised under the stewardship of former banker and businessman Patrick Maroteaux, who purchased the property in 1988.
