VertdeVin
The nose is fruity and offers minerality, a small concentration and deepness. It reveals notes of ripe strawberry, blackberry and small notes of small black fruits associated with touches of cornflower, small blue fruits as well as discreet hints of liquorice, mushroom and a discreet hint of Sichuan pepper. The mouth is fruity, fresh, mineral, well-balanced and offers a beautiful definition, gourmandize, an acidulous frame and precision. On the mouth this wine expresses notes of fleshy blackberry, ripe wild raspberry and small notes of very ripe small berries associated with a touch of dry violet, dry rose as well as hints of racy minerality, mushroom and a very discreet hint of tobacco and cardamom. Tannins are elegant and well-built.
Wine Enthusiast
With dense fruit and a powerful, complex structure, this is one of the best wines from this chateau. Blackberries, black plums and a rich, generous character are all here, along with fine tannins. Drink this great success from 2018.
Robert Parker Wine Advocate
An underrated wine that has shed its youthful austerity to offer terrific drinking today, the 2011 Branaire-Ducru exhibits aromas of sweet cassis, loamy soil, cigar wrapper and classy new oak, followed by a medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated palate framed by powdery tannins and lively acids. On release, it was far from apparent that this would emerge as a charming classic, but in a blind tasting, I mistook it for the estate's 2010.
