It’s full-bodied and layered. Flavorful finish. One of the best ever.’\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccite\u003e 94–95\/100 James Suckling, May 2021 \u003c\/cite\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e‘The deep, inky-hued 2020 Château Grand-Puy Ducasse has a seriously impressive, balanced, full-bodied, structured style that's going to reward patience. Pure crème de cassis, black raspberry, graphite, lead pencil, and spring flower notes all define the bouquet, and it has plenty of background oak, a dense, chewy mid-palate, lots of tannins, and a great finish. It's going to need to be forgotten for 7-8 years but will evolve for 30 years or more.’\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccite\u003e 93–96\/100 Jeb Dunnuck, May 2021 \u003c\/cite\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e‘Flows wonderfully from the start, with an already accessible feel to the mix of cassis and dark blackberry notes inlaid with singed alder, warm paving stone, tobacco leaf and graphite accents that then carry the finish. In the end, there's no rush at all here. A pretty gorgeous Pauillac.’\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccite\u003e\n94\/100 Wine Spectator\n\u003c\/cite\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e‘The 2020 Grand Puy Ducasse is another fabulous wine from a château that has been on an impressive streak over the last few years. Red fruit, graphite, mint, dried herbs and blood orange. The interplay of richness and energy is compelling. Even as a very young barrel sample, the oak is so well integrated. The 2020 is a striking wine loaded with potential. The long, seamless finish is a thing of beauty. Tasted two times. I very much like the energy here.’\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccite\u003e 92–94\/100 Antonio Galloni, Vinous, May 2021 \u003c\/cite\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e‘Some grilled smoke edges to the aromatics on the first nose. This is extremely tight in its tannins, pretty austere and you need to take a beat to allow this to settle. Cassis and blueberry fruit notes help bring some juice among the tight muscular structure. The oak is a little evident overall, but this is carefully made with promise.’\u003cbr\u003e\u003ccite\u003e 90\/100, Jane Anson, Decanter, April 2021 \u003c\/cite\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e","brand":"Château Grand-Puy Ducasse","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43261291659516,"sku":"PUYDUC20","price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0463\/2438\/3912\/files\/chateau-grand-puy-ducasse-pauillac-5eme-cru-classe-2020.jpg?v=1784030280","url":"https:\/\/bubblebrothers.ie\/en-gb\/products\/chateau-grand-puy-ducasse-pauillac-5eme-cru-classe-2020","provider":"Bubble Brothers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
