The 2024 vintage reveals itself to be delicate and complex, yet fleshy, with refined tannins and long-lasting aromas.
The nose is fine and precise, with a lovely richness and sparkle of slowly ripened fruit without excessive heat. On the palate, the wine is round and supple, with a lovely aromatic relief. There is a gentle touch of oaky notes at this stage, but the finesse and elegance of the already well-melted tannins are perfectly respected. The tannins in the grapes took full advantage of the drier conditions in the middle of the summer. The alcohol content, just under 13% vol, is moderate, and the wine is well-balanced with a lovely liveliness
92 points Wine Advocate:
The 2024 Branaire-Ducru offers up a pretty and precise bouquet of cassis, violets and pencil shavings. Medium-bodied, supple and suave, with polished tannins and tangy acids, it's a fine-boned, delicate wine from Branaire that was harvested between 20 September and 9 October. It's a blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot that attained 12.8% alcohol, and it's being raised in a touch less new oak than usual. - William Kelley
