2019 vintage. Nothing to be found about Château Moulin de la Bridane, but the backlabel says "vignobles Bruno Saintout", the owner of Château La Bridane, one of the rare Saint-Julien wines that is not classified. I suspect this is a supermarket label only but I have no idea if it is supposed to be of lesser quality than La Bridane. This seems plausible as this tastes lean and vegetal unfortunately.

Lovely aged St Julien nose of tobacco and cedar, mixed with plumbs, autumnal mulch, cider vinegar, and raspberries. Quite mature colour but still darkish rusty redbrick throughout; tannins resolved and a lively streak of unfiltered lightly sour cider running through it. Drinking beautifully well right now!

Quite fruit-forward especially for a St Julien. Notes of blackcurrant, red pepper, a little bit of vanilla. Medium to full bodied on the palate. Lacks the velvety texture I’m looking for but it’s pretty good for the price. Clean, peppery finish.
