Textbook Pauillac polish. Firm yet graceful, with that unmistakable graphite-and-cassis swagger. The palate feels composed and savoury, blackcurrant and cedar intertwining with a dusting of spice and fine, chalky tannins. Perfect with a ribeye or slow-cooked beef. Smart, grown-up claret that delivers real class without the price tag of its big sibling.
Prélude is the second wine of Château Grand-Puy-Ducasse, drawing fruit from younger vines across the estate’s enviable gravel plots. It’s designed for earlier drinking but carries all the precision and pedigree of the Grand Vin.
92 points – James Suckling: “Blackcurrant and walnut aromas with medium to full body, firm tannins and a refined, focused finish. Excellent second wine.”
