Velvety, ruby red color. On the nose, the fruity texture is suave and expressive, supported by notes of spice and smoke. The palate mirrors the notes in the bouquet; the texture is velvety with distinct tannins. Pairs well with meat such as quail and veal, and cheeses like Brie or Tomme.
Vinous
- v89
The 2016 Duluc de Branaire-Ducru is a soft, fruity wine to drink now and over the next few years, while the red/purplish berry fruit and floral notes retain their youthful vibrancy.

Youthfully rigid, with a strong apple wood frame around the vivid cherry and cassis fruit flavors, cruising through a grippy, briar-edged finish. The fruit is pure, but this has moderate range overall. Drink as soon as the tension eases up. Best from 2021 through 2028. 12,500 cases made.
