The Wine Advocate

"The deep garnet-purple colored 2018 Branaire-Ducru begins just a tad reduced with broody tar, rubber and fried herbs scents giving way to a fragrant core of warm cassis, blackberry pie and blueberry coulis with touches of smoked meats and tobacco. Full-bodied, firm and rugged in the mouth with brawny, muscular fruit and a sturdy frame of grainy tannins, it finishes long and savory."

Decanter Magazine

"Branaire-Ducru has managed to produce an exceptionally balanced and refined St-Julien in a year when that was not the easiest task. Depth and complexity is clear, although it´s just a little held back right now. The architecture is such that there are walls to scale and depths to plumb, but with less generosity overall. 53hl/ha yield."

"58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot, 4% Cabernet Franc; 60% new oak. Barrel sample.
Black-cherry rim with opaque core. Scented with cassis and ripe damson fruit, quite open on the nose. Lively on the palate too, really fruity, balanced by fine layers of dry but not drying tannins. Oaky, chewy, rich, but smooth on the finish with aromatic fruit through to the finish.

"Like a cushion cut ruby with its facets reflecting violet around the rim, the wine opens with a perfume of flowers and black raspberries and mocha, spice and tobacco leaf appear effortlessly. On the palate the wine is bright, fresh, silky and even creamy. The fruit shows a strong floral spirit that gracefully marries into the crème de cassis. The wine remains balanced and fresh with no touch of heat in the high-degree of ripeness. This will be among the best vintages of Branaire ever produced. The wine is a blend of 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot and 4% Cabernet Franc, reaching 14.3% alcohol with a pH of 3.6. The Grand Vin was produced from 60% of the harvest and the picking took place from September 19 to October 10."

Jean-Marc Quarin

"Couleur sombre, intense et belle. Nez intense, fin, fruité, pur et mûr. Délicat à l'attaque, immédiatement suave en milieu de bouche, aérien, parfumé, le vin évolue savoureux et fondant. Il s'étire en finale sèveux et long, avec du velouté sur un grain fin. C'est bon ! Assemblage : 55 % cabernet sauvignon, 33 % merlot, 5 % petit verdot, 4 % cabernet franc. Degré d'alcool : 14°3 (moyenne plus) - pH : 3,6 (moyenne - IPT : 72 (moyenne plus). Rendement : 53 hl/ha. 2028 – 2048"

James Suckling

"This is a fantastic Brainaire with deep and dark fruit, such as blackberries and blackcurrants. Lots of raspberries, too. Full-bodied with firm and creamy tannins and a super long finish. We will see if it’s better than 2016, but on its way."

95-96 Punkte (Apr. 2019)

 

"Very attractive aromas of currants, tile and sandalwood with black and red currants. It’s full-bodied with a tight, dense center-palate that remains closed in and tight. Yet there is underlying seriousness and length to this. Perhaps the greatest Branaire-Ducru ever made."

Roger Voss

"This is a dense wine that is built by firm tannins, bright acidity and great fruitiness. Its structure is fully integrated into the blackberry fruits that give a rich wine that has a fine future."

"Frisches, mittelkräftiges Bouquet, Zwetschgen, Kirschen, Mocca, Zedern. Ausgewogener, fein cremiger Gaumen mit süsser Frucht, feinem Tannin, kräftiger Aromatik, feingliedriger Struktur, langer, feiner Abgang. Kann noch zulegen."

Wine Spectator

"This is well-packed, with blueberry, açaí and blackberry fruit flavors and licorice snap and fruitcake notes. Long and refined despite the copious fruit, showing polish and poise through the finish."

VINOUS

"The 2018 Branaire-Ducru is fabulous. Bright, lifted and impeccably precise, the 2018 is one of the best recent Branaires I can remember tasting. The 2018 is distinguished by its vertical lift, striking aromatic intensity and exceptional balance. Lavender, rose petal, gravel, mint and sweet red/purplish berry fruit are all given an extra kick of textural richness. More than anything else, I was blown away by the wine's density and precision. The 2018 is dazzling. There's not much else to say. Well, except the obvious question, which is why is Branaire not at this level every year? The 2018 is 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot and 4% Cabernet Franc. Tasted three times."

Yves Beck

"Superbe bouquet de Branaire-Ducru ! Intense, fruité et floral avec des notes de cassis, de griottes et de fleurs d’iris. Beaucoup de jus et de fraîcheur en bouche. On ressent bien le Cabernet Sauvignon en grâce à sa fraîcheur et à l’intensité fruitée qu’il confère à l’ensemble du palais. Tannins élégants, bien intégrés, qui se révèlent lentement pour atteindre leur expression maximale en fin de bouche. Un vin élégant, puissant, abouti et persistant en finale. Bravo !"
