Croix de Beaucaillou serves as the second wine from the renowned 2nd Cru chateau Ducru-Beaucaillou in Saint-Julien, where classic Bordeaux blends dominate – typically with a focus on Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. 2003 was a warm year with an unusual heat wave in the area, resulting in concentrated wines with rich, ripe fruit notes and softer tannins than usual.

The style is generally available earlier than the château wines, but with good complexity and structure. The wine often receives a few years in oak, emphasizing the classic, elegant Saint-Julien character.

Croix de Beaucaillou has typically received solid reviews from international reviewers and is considered to be among the most serious second wines in the Médoc. The 2003 edition has proven surprisingly durable and appealing after some time in the cellar, especially for those who appreciate ripe, full-bodied Bordeaux wines.
