{"title":"Wines: St. Julien","description":"\u003cp\u003eSituated between Pauillac, to the north and Margaux  a few miles to the south, St. Julien is one of the Medoc’s most consistent communes. Although there are no firsts, there are a total of 11 classed growths, five of which include the notable second growths: Léoville-Las-Cases, Léoville Barton, Ducru-Beaucaillou, Léoville-Poyferré, and Grauad-Larose. Although hard to generalize, the wines approach an intriguing balance between the different styles of its neighboring communes. They are rich, aromatic wines, similar to but slightly less powerful than Pauillac and yet are not as austere and rustic as St. Estèphe, while offering some of the seductive elegance of Margaux.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"leoville-las-cases-1995-750ml","title":"Leoville Las Cases - 1995 (750ml)","description":"","brand":"Olson","offers":[{"title":"750ml","offer_id":43035694006435,"sku":"400904","price":224.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0613\/4104\/0803\/products\/red_wine_2e117f6a-4ab8-4adf-b05a-fd1568e57fbb.jpg?v=1682311696"},{"product_id":"branaire-ducru-1982-750ml","title":"Branaire Ducru - 1982 (750ml)","description":"A strong effort for this estate, the 1982 exhibits sweet aromas of plums, licorice, earth, and flowers.
