A Masterpiece of the Legendary 2010 Vintage | 94 Points

Experience the "Super Second" of Saint-Julien. The 2010 La Croix de Beaucaillou is not merely a second wine; it is a profound expression of one of the greatest Bordeaux vintages in living memory. Sourced from dedicated plots within the Château Ducru-Beaucaillou estate, this wine delivers the power, precision, and "beautiful stones" terroir that collectors crave.

Why This Bottle Belongs in Your Cellar:

  • The Vintage of a Generation: 2010 is heralded for its "cool-climate" precision paired with "warm-climate" ripeness. The result is a wine with massive structure, vibrant acidity, and an aging potential that rivals the 1982 and 2005 vintages.
  • Designer Heritage: This specific vintage features a bespoke label by Jade Jagger, reflecting the modern, flamboyant, and rock-star elegance that owner Bruno Borie has brought to the estate.
  • The "Beautiful Stones": Grown on the iconic large Garonne gravel (the Beaucaillou ), this wine benefits from natural heat retention, leading to the exceptionally polished, velvet tannins found in this 2010 bottling.
  • Tasting Notes & Critical Acclaim "Fabulous texture of polished and integrated tannins... spicy, subtle fruit and a long and marvelous finish." — 94 Points, James Suckling
  • On the nose, expect an explosion of crushed blackberries, cassis, and graphite, underscored by hints of Asian spice and cedar. The palate is dense and layered, offering a "St. Julien silkiness" that balances its immense power. With a blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Merlot, it showcases the nobility of the Left Bank.
