Le Petit Ducru de la Croix Beaucaillou is the second wine of the legendary Château Ducru-Beaucaillou, a Deuxième Grand Cru Classé estate in the Saint-Julien appellation of Bordeaux, France. The estate is owned by the Bruno-Eugène Borie family and is regarded as one of the benchmarks of the Médoc. This second label captures the elegant, structured character of the grand vin at a more accessible level, drawing on younger vines and select parcels from the estate.

The 2021 vintage is a classically styled Bordeaux, predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon blended with Merlot and small amounts of Cabernet Franc. It offers aromas of dark currant, cedar, graphite, and subtle floral notes, with a palate of firm yet polished tannins, fresh acidity, and flavors of blackberry, tobacco, and earth. The wine is well-structured for medium-term cellaring and equally enjoyable with decanting upon release.

Pairs well with roasted lamb, beef tenderloin, duck confit, and aged hard cheeses. Sold as a 750ML bottle, available in cases of 12.
