2016 Duluc de Branaire Ducru Saint Julien - Bordeaux Red

Château Branaire-Ducru has particularly old vines, some of which are a hundred years old. The second wine, Duluc, benefits from younger vines, which does not detract from its elegance or richness. Made with the same care as its elder, Duluc is an airy wine of great finesse. 

Grape varieties:  54% Cab Sauvignon, 44% Merlot, 2% Cab Franc,
