Château Larcis Ducasse 1er Grand Cru Classé B 2012
The wine
Larcis Ducasse’s terroir means that it can produce concentrated, sun-drenched wine that always retains a certain elegance. It has an attractive dark fruit and spice bouquet. As it develops, it delivers distinctive truffle notes. A wine to be savoured after 7 to 20 years of cellaring.
About the Producer Château Larcis Ducasse
Larcis Ducasse is a 11-hectare château in the commune of Saint-Laurent-des-Combes, on the famous Côte Pavie. Nicolas Thiepont is now at the helm of the domaine, with Stéphane Derenencourt as his advisor. Ranked 1er grand cru, this Saint-Emilion has made impressive progress. Larcis Ducasse’s exceptional terroir can produce sun-drenched wines which are usually much more balanced than those made by some of its neighbours.
