dicht gewoben intensiv und nachhaltig
extraprima 92 | Auf Branaire Ducru wurde in 2022 vom 12.-24. September geerntet. Die Assemblage besteht aus 60,5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31,5% Merlot, 5,5% Cabernet Franc und 2,5% Petit Verdot mit 14,3% Alkohol.
Zartere Farbe, etwas leichter. Feine, süßliche Nase mit etwas Holz und einem sehr eleganten Eindruck. Zart, schmelzig und klar auf der Zunge, etwas verhalten, die Gerbstoffe sind dennoch reichhaltig und offensiv. Wirkt aromatisch etwas zu leicht für diese massive, wuchtige Struktur. Braucht vermutlich einfach nur etwas Zeit.
fokussiert, cremig und beeindruckend
Suckling 96 | Blackcurrants and pencil shavings with such intense but subtle character on the nose. Some crushed stones as well. Full-bodied and dense with layers of polished tannins that are integrated and focused, creamy and caressing. Very long and persistent. 60.5% cabernet sauvignon, 31.5% merlot, 5.5% cabernet franc and 2.5% petit verdot. Best after 2028.
viel Frucht und jodige Nuancen
Martin 96 | The 2022 Branaire Ducru, bottled mid-June, was one of the most impressive I tasted from barrel. It retains a wonderful bouquet with more red fruit compared to its peers, hints of iodine and a touch of desiccated orange peel. The wine shows fine, almost clinical delineation. It is medium-bodied with an extremely well balanced palate, slightly powdery tannins and a sense of tension and brightness that, like some of the best Saint-Juliens in 2022, puts it above the 2019 or 2020. Quite linear and mineral-driven towards the sapid finish, this is a classic Branaire-Ducru that will age with style in bottle.
Cassis und Brombeeren mit Graphit und Zigarrenkiste
Parker’s WA 96 | The 2022 Branaire-Ducru has turned out just as brilliantly as I had hoped. Offering up a deep bouquet of crème de cassis and blackberries mingled with pencil shavings, burning embers and cigar box, it's medium to full-bodied, velvety and unctuous, with a rich core of fruit, lively acids and sweet structuring tannins. Iterated and complete, it concludes with a long, broad finish. This blend of 60.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31.5% Merlot, 5.5% Cabernet Franc and 2.5% Petit Verdot is worth a special effort to seek out.
dunkle Kirschen, neues Leder, Espresso und Lakritz
Galloni 95 | The 2022 Branaire-Ducru is a dense, plush wine, atypically so for a Saint-Julien that is usually more reserved. Unctuous in feel, with superb balance, the 2022 Branaire-Ducru is quite the extrovert. Soft contours wrap around a core of dark cherry, plum, mocha, new leather, espresso and licorice. Yields were 33HL per hectare, lower than the historical norm here in the upper 30s/lower 40s because of stress on the vines. The 2022 spent 16 months in French oak, with 60% new wood. This is a decidedly exotic Branaire-Ducru. I can't wait to see how it ages. Tasted two times.
