2006 Ch. Larcis Ducasse, St Emilion

Delightfully rich, ripe and fragrant black fruit and cream notes abound on the bouquet. The palate lives up to the promise of the nose with supple, mouthfilling black fruit and hints of spice supported by silky smooth tannins. A superb concentrated wine in a feminine style.
(Chris Pollington, BBR Fine Wine Specialist, Oct 2008)

The wine has enticing sweet black cherry fruit on the nose with white pepper spice and a touch of tobacco. On the palate the wine starts slowly but then bursts into life with deep, broody plum and blackberry fruit cloaking the firm tannins and refreshing acidity that carry the wine through to a well-constructed finish. This has the complexity, fruit concentration and elegance that mark out the best wines in 2006.
