Chateau Larcis Ducasse 1er Grand Cru Classe B 2020

Dette er nabo til Château Bellefont-Belcier. På den anden side ligger Château Pavie. Det er de bedste steder på de sydlige kalkstensskråninger i Saint-Émilion, Côte Pavie. Stadig ret stejle, sydvendte. Vinen har været et af Saint-Émilions insidertips i årevis og er svær at finde. Altid lidt moderne, fordi andelen af nyt træ er relativt høj. Men samtidig er den også ultrafin og poleret. Terroiret egner sig også godt til vanskelige tider. Denne del af Saint-Émilion var dog meget ugunstigt stillet med hensyn til regn i 2020. Der faldt ikke en eneste dråbe regn her fra juni til midten af september. Det kan også blive lidt svært her. Meget moden næse. Sveske, sorte kirsebær, rom, kogt ned. Denne meget intense, aromatiske kraft findes også i smagen, men uden at være præget af træ eller ekstraktion som sin nabo Pavie. Måske lidt bagud i forhold til 2019. Meget god Saint-Émilion på Côte Pavie, en af de allerbedste vine her. 97-99/100

The Wine Independent om: Chateau Larcis Ducasse 1er Grand Cru Classe B

The 2020 Larcis Ducasse is a blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple in color, it is a little reticent to begin, needing considerable swirling to unlock notes of preserved plums, blueberry compote, and black cherry pie, plus hints of candied violets, dark chocolate, and licorice with a waft of crushed rocks. The full-bodied palate is laden with black fruit and earthy layers, supported by firm yet velvety tannins and impressive tension, finishing with epic length. 99/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Larcis Ducasse 1er Grand Cru Classe B

The Grand Vin comes from a tiny 11.15-hectare vineyard that has been in the Gratiot family since 1893. Located on the south-facing Côte Pavie, between Château Pavie and Château Bellefont-Belcier and consisting of clay on top of limestone soils, the vineyard has recently been going through a replanted phase using a selection massale and a higher density planting. The grapes are hand-sorted, vinification occurs all in concrete and spans four weeks, with the élevage in 50% new French oak. A normal blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, the 2020 Château Larcis Ducasse reminds me of the 2005 and is up with the top handful of wines on the Right Bank. It has a brilliant perfume of red and black fruits, white truffle, leafy tobacco, and Asian spices. This carries to a full-bodied, concentrated, powerful Larcis-Ducasse with ultra-fine yet building tannins, perfect balance, a stacked mid-palate, and one heck of a great finish. It's going to flirt with perfection in 7-8 years (I'm probably underrating it a point) and have 30 years of overall longevity. Tasted numerous times with consistent results. 99/100

Wine Cellar Insider om: Chateau Larcis Ducasse 1er Grand Cru Classe B

Pungent aromas of flowers, licorice, crushed rocks, oak, dark cocoa, black, red and blue fruits focus your attention. The wine offers a mineral-driven, full-bodied blast of silky, flamboyant, luscious red fruits with salty tannins. The fruit coats your palate, lingers and seamlessly expands, finishing with licorice, sensuously textured red and black fruits, espresso and oyster shell. This is on the way to developing into one of the best vintages ever produced by Larcis Ducasse. 98-100

Suckling om: Chateau Larcis Ducasse 1er Grand Cru Classe B

Transparent and pure with crushed stone and flowers such as violets, as well as minerals and blackcurrants. Bramble berries as well. Medium to full body. Tight and very fine tannins that run the length of the wine. Kicks off at the end. So fresh and energetic. Tannic in the finish with fine texture. Drink after 2028. 98/100

Galloni om: Chateau Larcis Ducasse 1er Grand Cru Classe B

The 2020 Larcis Ducasse is a real showstopper. Bright and vertical in feel, the 2020 possesses tremendous energy to match its super-classic build. Beams of tannin and acid give the wine its shape. Dark cherry and pomegranate fruit are pushed forward, with a kick of blood orange acidity that lends freshness. Graphite, dried herbs, menthol, spice and cedar emerge with some coaxing, but the 2020 is very young and very primary. That of course bodes so well for its future. The 2020 is quite simply a thrilling Larcis and one of the very finest values in all of Bordeaux. 98/100

Decanter om: Chateau Larcis Ducasse 1er Grand Cru Classe B

Perfumed nose, heady and seductive, the aromas shining out of the glass. Full, rich and vibrant tones of blackcurrant and black cherry. Ripe and chewy, the tannins really are present and grippy but have a plushness and a bounce to them, they coat the entire mouth, seriously wide and expansive but are gentle even in their fillingness. A powdery blueberry juiciness with intense liquorice touches walks the line between freshness and power so well. Really a step up in quality, still tight, strong and not exactly charming at this point but there’s no faulting the winemaking here, this is direct, powerful and firm but so long with great acidity. Packed and charged, ripe and rich, yet round and balanced. I adore it. 98/100

Jane Anson om: Chateau Larcis Ducasse 1er Grand Cru Classe B

Just such a brilliant wine, with finesse and balance. Joyful, with dark chocolate, blueberry and cassis fruits, salted crackers, wet stone minerality, violet aromatics. Supple tannins, this is both complex and simply easy to enjoy, with layers that grip and delight. Love it, holds on tight and keeps you engaged. 10ha estate owned by Famille Gratiot-Attmane, but with the Nicolas Thienpont team overseeing winemaking. 97/100

Parker om: Chateau Larcis Ducasse 1er Grand Cru Classe B

The 2020 Larcis Ducasse has a deep purple-black color, leaping from the glass with bold notions of redcurrant jelly, plum preserves, kirsch and red roses, followed by hints of licorice, fragrant earth and spice cake, with a touch of woodsmoke. The medium to full-bodied palate is laden with fragrant red berries and profound black fruit preserves, supported by ripe, rounded tannins and lovely tension, finishing very long and fantastically layered. Absolutely, stunningly singular. 96-98/100
