The 2011 Château Branaire-Ducru showcases the estate’s skill in crafting wines of elegance and restraint in cooler vintages. Gravel-rich soils provided drainage during the wet spring, allowing the Cabernet Sauvignon to ripen fully by harvest. Aromas of redcurrant, cranberry, and fresh herbs introduce a medium-bodied palate of tart red fruit, graphite, and tobacco, with fine tannins lending structure to this graceful and classically styled Saint-Julien.
