It's always nice to see mature Bordeaux on supermarket shelves – especially at this price – and this one, from the same stable as St-Julien second-growth Château Ducru-Beaucaillou, has real pedigree. It's getting a little dry, so not one for long ageing, but delivers elegant polished leather, smoky oak and spiced black raspberry fruit notes.
