Moulis en Médoc Merlot Blend

2016 vintage. Smoky nose at first, developing well with air. More power and depth compared to the floral and fresh Mauvesin Barton tasted alongside.

2018 vintage. 70% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot. More of a right bank feel with more red fruit , compared to the Pauillac-like 2019. Drinking beautifully already, but no need to hurry.

2019 vintage. For me this is the top wine in Moulis.

2019 vintage. Classy cedary cassis nose with a distinctive Pauillac-like lead pencil minerality. Layers of juicy black fruit, dark chocolate, haute couture tannins and energetic acidity. Very long too. Excellent. In my humble opinion this is the finest estate in Moulis , definitely of Cru Classé quality.

Second day after opening 🔝

Amazing

Too expensive for what it offers. Tastes like a good fruity $25 Bordeaux. While it was perfectly fresh after all these years in bottle, this Bordeaux did not and could not benefit from aging. A light and fruity Bordeaux that would be good with comfort food (pizza) but not with meat.

Ce que l'on attends d'un bordeaux, magnifique tension et un beau fruit

superb nose of cedarwood and some menthol. Palate is still too hard and tannic , no balance, maybe more time??

Started really well with black currant, dark cherries and spices, but ends dry with lots of new oak. Decent bottle but not our style.
