Tasting notes
An excellent 1992 that reveals impressive concentration, this vintage of Ducru boasts fine structure, as well as an attractive berry-scented, floral nose. Rich and authoritative, with firm tannin, medium body, and a spicy, long finish, this impressive wine begs for 2-3 years of cellaring. It is a candidate for 10-15 years of positive evolution. This is one of the most complete wines of the vintage.

Lean, racy mint and berry character but very short on the finish. -James Suckling, Wine Spectator 1995
