• Jeff Leve bewertete (05/2026) Château Château Ducru Beaucaillou 2025 wie folgt: ""Spice, roses, irises, and white flowers are only part of the aromatic display. You also enjoy licorice, espresso, smoke, tobacco, blackberries, and black cherries. However, the palate owns the show with its display of sensuous, silky, refined black and red fruits, Asian spices, chocolate, herbs, and mint leaf. The expansive finish combines power with elegance. Everything is in balance, providing a lingering, seamless endnote that allows you to experience the purity and wealth of fruit, which lingers for over 60 seconds. Produced from blending 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, with 21% Merlot, 13.44% ABV, 3.74 pH. Picking took place from September 2 -- September 23. 2025 marks the earliest and the longest harvest in the history of the estate. Yields were 22 hectoliters per hectare. Drink from 2032-2070." - 98-100 Punkte
• Yves Beck bewerteten (04/2026) Château Ducru Beaucaillou 2025 wie folgt: "...Ein bewegender, berührender Ducru, so treu er sich selbst ist, so grandios er ist. Er muss sich nicht einmal an die Zeit anpassen, er genügt sich selbst, nicht aus Laune, sondern aus Aufrichtigkeit. Eine echte Persönlichkeit; imposant, beständig, mitreißend!." - 99-100 Punkte
• Jeb Dunnuck bewertete (04/2026) Château Ducru Beaucaillou 2025 wie folgt: "Deep purple-hued and completely opaque, the blockbuster 2025 Château Ducru-Beaucaillou checks in as 79% Cabernet Sauvignon and 21% Merlot, all resting in 100% new barrels. The nose is rich and concentrated, with pure crème de cassis, graphite, ripe black cherries, spicy wood, and freshly sharpened pencil-driven aromatics. On the palate, it's full-bodied, with a dense, concentrated mid-palate, ripe, building tannins, and a great finish. It checks in at 13.44% alcohol with a pH of 3.8. This structured, pure, and incredibly precise Ducru reminds me slightly of the 2010, with perhaps a touch more finesse." - 97-99 Punkte
• A. Galloni  bewertete (04/2026) Château Ducru Beaucaillou 2025 wie folgt : "The 2025 Ducru-Beaucaillou is fabulous. Vibrant red/purplish fruit, rose petal, lavender, mint and blood orange are all beautifully sculpted. The purity of the fruit is just remarkable. New oak is 100%, but lower toast levels and a more dialed-in approach here are palpable. Gorgeous floral and savory Cabernet top notes lift the finish. Superb, and one of the highlights of the year, Ducru is absolutely stunning in 2025. " - 97-99 Punkte
• Lisa Perroti-Brown (The Wine Palate) bewertete (04/2026) Château Ducru Beaucaillou 2025 wie folgt : "Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2025 Ducru-Beaucaillou shimmies out with vibrant notes of freshly crushed black currants and blueberries, opening out to sparkles of violets, licorice, crushed rocks, and cardamom, with a waft of iron ore. The medium-bodied palate is fantastically elegant with firm yet exquisitely ripe, fine-grained tannins and amazing tension to match the delicately nuanced black fruit layers, finishing with epic length and an incredible firework display of minerals and flowers.

• Decanter bewertete (04/2026) Château Ducru Beaucaillou 2025 wie folgt : "Such a vivid and vibrant colour in the glass with a bright pink rim. Ripe almost heady aromatics – perfumed bramble fruits with a dried floral aspect and dark chocolate. Ripe and massy in the mouth, not as sexy and smooth as Ducru can be, this is more grainy and a little grippy with the tannins and structure clearly on show and dark fruit in the background. Serious, sultry even, with oak on show – liquorice and clove spice. The aromatic display is quite incredible, certainly full of intensity but this hasn't settled yet. Mouthwatering acidity, great tannin structure, there’s a lot going on with this wine. Ends cool and fresh and lifted. I love the intensity, quite unlike many other wines this vintage – this is built like a racehorse, muscular and filling but chewy and soft too. I love the personality and think this wine has a long life ahead. There’s purity, clarity and gloss " - 98 Punkte
