Some ripe aromas but pretty light. Some oak and superficial thickness of texture – certainly very carefully managed tannins – but, again, it’s difficult to discern the flavour here. (JR)
Shows a wonderful nose of crushed blackberry and blueberry, with black licorice. Full-bodied, offering polished, silky tannins and a long, caressing finish. Needs more on the midpalate to be outstanding, but very fine. Best after 2012. 31,250 cases made.-James Suckling, Wine Spectator 2010
About the producer
If there’s one Moulis estate you know, it is likely Chasse-Spleen, today owned by the Foubet family. Vines have been planted here since the 16th century, and today it has an impressive 100 hectares to its name.
