Château Branaire-Ducru – Saint-Julien 2009 (75 cl) is a classic and generous Bordeaux from Château Branaire-Ducru, which in the 2009 vintage displays both ripe fruit and great balance.

The wine is primarily based on Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, opening with intense aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, and ripe cherries, accompanied by notes of cedar, tobacco, spices, and a hint of dark chocolate.

On the palate, it is full-bodied and harmonious with soft, ripe tannins, a round structure, and a long, lingering finish. The 2009 vintage produces a wine with both immediate charm and complexity, where the tertiary nuances are beginning to unfold beautifully.

94 /100

The 2009 Branaire-Ducru has a medium to deep garnet color and reveals compelling notions of warm cassis, licorice, baked plums and hoisin with hints of sautéed herbs and pencil lead. Youthful and medium to full-bodied, it has a generous core of black fruits with a firm and grainy structure and bags of freshness, finishing long with great purity. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate

91 /100

I've had some bottle variation with this vintage of Branaire, and this bottle is a little subdued. There is clearly plenty of ripe fruit on display, but also tobacco, dried roses, soy, earth, clear tertiary notes. It is charming, with subtle and sappy balance, but very much in its drinking window. Patrick Maroteaux owner at the time.

89 /100

Deep dark ruby garnet, black core, violet reflections, delicately leafy on the nose, fresh cassis, lemon zest. Taut, still somewhat demanding tannins on the palate. Appears somewhat hollow and brittle on the palate, red berry finish, rather slender.

This is opulent, but with restraint. The fruit is rich, black and delicious. Touches of spice and wood are present, lending complexity to the ripe fruits and balanced tannins. Impressive.

About the grape

Rød Bordeaux Blend

Rød Bordeaux Blend er en kombination af de druesorter, der traditionelt bruges til Bordeaux' berømte rødvine. Det er ikke en officiel betegnelse, men en praktisk måde at tale om en vinsstil, der nu dyrkes over hele verden – fra Californien til Australien, Sydafrika til Chile.

Essensen er fleksibilitet: typisk en blend af Cabernet Sauvignon og Merlot, ofte suppleret med Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot og Malbec. Hver drue tilfører noget unikt – struktur, frugt, krydderier eller blødhed.

Rød Bordeaux Blend er for dig, der søger kraftfuld struktur og dybe smagsnuancer. Det er vine med personlighed – nogle kan nydes straks, andre udvikler sig smukt gennem årene. Her får du en vinsstil med historisk fundament, der stadig inspirerer vinmagere verden over.

Serving

Rød Bordeaux Blend serveres bedst ved 16-18°C, hvor vinens frugt, struktur og kompleksitet står skarpest. Serveres den for varm, kan alkoholen virke mere dominerende, mens for lav temperatur dæmper aromaerne. Bordeaux anbefaler selv 16-18°C til strukturerede og lagringsværdige rødvine.
