That said, some of that youthful exuberance has given way to the characteristic Brainaire finesse. Dark red cherry, spice, grilled herbs, menthol and licorice emerge, but only with great reluctance. Sweet floral and spice notes lift the finish nicely. The 2020 is going to need the better part of a decade to come around.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e95 points Decanter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAn intensely perfumed nose with soft cocoa powder aromas. The texture is alluring, juicy and ripe but lifted, quite dense but also linear, a push-pull of direct fruit and chalky, plump tannins. Rich but not as supple as 2018, a bit more angular. Black cherries, plums and currants on the palate with both a nice sweetness and salinity. Not so easy to taste and understand today, it's thought provoking with lots going on. Great potential for a long life and one to watch!! Bottled at the beginning of July 2022.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TWINS BORDEAUX, AMERICA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40689146036420,"sku":"W19858","price":32.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/4084\/2436\/files\/BranaireDucru2020.webp?v=1793290987","url":"https:\/\/pjwine.com\/products\/chateau-branaire-ducru-saint-julien-2018-pre-arrival-375ml","provider":"PJ Wine, Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
