Château Branaire Ducru 2022 in Bordeaux Subskription

Bewertungen:

Wenn man sich die Buchstaben etwas zurecht zupft und das Ergebnis in sein Gegenteil verkehrt, so ist schon alleine im Namen ersichtlich, dass der Branaire Ducru der no-brainer des Jahrgangs 2022 in der Bordeaux Subskription ist.

Selbst wer sich in den Gefilden Saint-Juliens so gut auskennt wie anderswo wer in seiner Westentasche, kommt nicht umhin, den Branaire 2022 für ein Wesen von einem anderen Stern zu halten.

Zollt man diesem Wunder in der gegenseitigen Annäherung den angemessenen Respekt und läßt genügend Glaskreiselschwünge Zeit, erlebt man eine in der schwerkraftenthobenen Leichtigkeit des Seins gegründete Erhabenheit, die schon die Nase zu einem edlen Hort vorzüglicher Noblesse gedeihen läßt, in der der Reigen saturierter Fruchtklarheit mit der wohldistinguierten Würze ein Duett von leidenschaftlicher Verve anstimmt.

So wie es der Inhalt einer klebrigen Getränkedose bereits für sich reklamiert, verleiht seine Anmut und innere Harmonie dem Branaire Ducru Flügel, die ihn zu einem Gaumengleiter von höchsten Gnaden machen. Die in feinstem Maßwerk gehaltenen Tannine sind die solide Basis, die die in ansatzlosem Moment dynamisierte Frucht in wohltuender Balance halten.

Der fein retronasal unterlegte Nachklang gleicht einem inspirierenden Epilog mit einer Einladung zur Reprise.

The Wine Advocate

"A brilliant wine that's the finest young vintage I've tasted at this Saint-Julien estate, the 2022 Branaire-Ducru wafts from the glass with aromas of violets, blackberries, sweet cassis, licorice and pencil shavings, followed by a medium to full-bodied, layered and multidimensional palate that's succulent, sapid and perfumed, framed by supple tannins and concluding with a long, mouthwatering finish. It's a blend of 60.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31.5% Merlot, 5.5% Cabernet Franc and 2.5% Petit Verdot that checks in at a healthy pH of 3.65. Why is it so good this year? In addition to the quality of the vintage, the new gravity-flow winery means fruit can be handled more gently, and picked more precisely, sub-block by sub-block, as the team now have fully 63 vats at their disposal, almost double their capacity through 2020. Given the Maroteaux family's sensible approach to pricing, this is likely to number among the must-purchase wines of the 2022 vintage, and it comes warmly recommended."

"One of the standouts of the vintage that impressed equally on three different occasions. Fragrant and expressive on the nose, lovely scents and dark fruits. Smooth and crisp, silky but concentrated, such precision and detail straight away with succulent and juicy acidity. There’s concentration no doubt, it’s ripe and intense, the dark perfumed blackcurrants and black cherries give a serious backbone and tension to the wine, while the minty, stony freshness carries the flavour and gives the energy and definition. Excellently weighted on the palate, with structure and a mouthwatering sensation that comes in once the weight settles. So well constructed with a beautiful texture and overall integration of all the elements. Exceptional quality and drinkability on offer with a delicious salty, graphite and flint finish that puts you at the estate. Overlook this at your peril. 2.5% Petit Verdot completes the blend. 3.65pH. Harvest 12 - 24 September. 60% grand vin production. A yield of 34hl/ha. Tasted three times. This vintage was the first to be made 100% in the new cellar with double the number of vats than were available in 2020 for more precise fermentations. HVE3 certified."

"Deep in color, the wine displays its bouquet of flowers before getting to all of its dark, red fruits, spice, mocha, nutmeg, vanilla, and black cherries. While the aromatics are enticing, it is on the palate, with all of its silky-textures, creaminess, energy and most importantly, purity of fruit and concentration that provides you with the best part of the experience. The finish has never been this defined, elegant and concentrated in any previous vintage of Branaire Ducru. This is an entirely new level of quality here. Clearly, this is the best vintage of Branaire Ducru ever produced! The wine blends 60.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31.5% Merlot, 5.5% Cabernet Franc, and 2.5% Petit Verdot. 14.3% ABV, 3.65 pH. The harvest took place September 12 - September 24. The yields were 34 hectoliters per hectare. Drink from 2027-2060."

Jean-Marc Quarin

"Couleur noire et pourpre. Nez intense, fin, fruité, subtil et noble. Moelleux en entrée de bouche, moelleux au milieu, avec de l'éclat dans la saveur, le vin évolue juteux, savoureux et même complexe en finale lorsqu'il gagne un éclat superbe. Profil dense et fondant. Une grande réussite. Assemblage : 60.5 % cabernet sauvignon, 31.5 % merlot, 5.5 % cabernet franc, 2.5 % petit verdot. Degré d’alcool : 14°3 – pH : 3,65. Rendement : 34,5 hl/ha."

"The fine and intense tannins are very impressive because they fold beautifully into the wine, with blackcurrants, black cherries, hints of chocolate and hazelnuts. It's full-bodied with tight and focused fruit and a long and classy finish. Fantastic definition to this. Fresh. 60.5% cabernet sauvignon, 31.5% merlot, 5.5% cabernet franc, and 2.5% petit verdot."

"An absolute gem of a Saint-Julien, the 2022 Château Branaire-Ducru clocks in as 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot, and the balance Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Pure cassis, black raspberries, spicy wood, and dried flower notes all define the aromatics, and it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, a silky, elegant, beautifully balanced mouthfeel, and terrific tannins. In addition, it has a sense of freshness and purity that keeps you coming back to the glass. It's clearly the finest wine I've tasted from this château, which going forward merits serious attention."

VINOUS

"The 2022 Branaire-Ducru is a powerhouse, almost unnaturally so for this Saint-Julien, which is usually a more understated wine. A blast of dark plum fruit makes a pretty strong first impression. Licorice, cloves, spice, menthol and chocolate fill out the layers. Readers should expect a concentrated, virile Saint-Julien with compelling aromatic presence. In this warm, low-yielding vintage, Branaire is quite the brooding powerhouse. It will be interesting to see if more finesse develops in time. Impressive. Tasted two times."

Antonio Galloni 94-96 Punkte

"The 2022 Branaire Ducru was harvested from 12-24 September at 34.5hL/ha, the blend representative of their vineyard plantings. This feels refined and focused on the nose with plush red berry fruit, dried rose petals and orange rind scents. Classic Branaire. The palate is fresh on the entry with pliant tannins. It's very well structured to the degree that it conveys a sense of symmetry. Lightly spiced toward the finish with notes of graphite lingering on the aftertaste, this represents an excellent Branaire Ducru that will age over many years and will surely appeal to those seeking more classical Saint-Julien. Tasted three times and was more impressive each time. Branaire-Ducru continues its upward trajectory under proprietor François-Xavier Maroteaux. 14.3% alcohol."

"Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, dezente Randaufhellung. Schwarze Kirschen, feine Kräuterwürze, Orangenzesten und Lakritze sind unterlegt. Saftig, gute Extraktsüße, reife Herzkirschen, frisch strukturiert, Nugat im Abgang, zeigt Länge, Charme und Potenzial."
