Bordeaux Book(1998) Author: Robert Parker Issue: B1

The 1988 Ducru is a medium-bodied wine, without the profound depth and sheer intensity of fruit of the 1989. Possessing high tannins and good ripeness, with an overall sense of compactness and toughness, it recalls the style of the best 1966 Medocs.

Wine Spectator Author: Thomas Matthews

Shows outstanding structure and definition. New oak comes through in the coffee and plum aromas and the palate is firm and concentrated, with delicious blackberry flavors. Hold until 2000 for it to soften and bloom.--Ducru-Beaucaillou vertical.

Vintage, musty, earthy, woody blackberry nose. Well balanced and structured with dark fruit and good acidity. An elegant bordeaux.
