On the palate, the attack is frank and the wine has a dense and supple structure. The finish is characterized by freshness.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"H2ReviewNotes\"\u003e92-94 Points Wine Enthusiast\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBarrel sample. Big and densely ripe, this is an impressive wine. It has balanced weight, fine acidity and a sense of richness. Offering all the right elements, this is going to be a great wine.

The 2012, from grapes harvested between October 2 and 17, has supple tannins and a nice mouthfeel that builds incrementally, offering up plenty of crème de cassis, plum and blackberry fruit. The wine is soft, round, opulently textured, and an undeniable success for 2012. The purity of fruit is also admirable. Drink this medium to full-bodied Pauillac over the next 20 years. This is significantly better than the barrel samples tasted in March, 2013. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"H2ReviewNotes\"\u003e90 Points Vinous\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2012 Grand Puy Ducasse is bold, racy and supple, all qualities that are best appreciated sooner rather than later. There is plenty to admire in the wine's giving, open-knit personality. Succulent red cherries, plums, mint and sweet spices round out the inviting finish.
