Tasting Notes
James Suckling 93-94
Firm and linear with medium to full body and chalky, slightly tight tannins. Hints of walnuts and dark berries at the end.
Jane Anson 93
Beautifully poised and well delivered black fruits here, and this is excellent quality, unusual spices of sweet cinnamon, vanilla bean, turmeric, gourmet edging, with depth and tannic grip. Great stuff, flashes of heat, but a ton of personality, and serious architecture that promises to age well. 40% new oak barrels for ageing. Now contains part of the vines from newly-purchased Chateau Brillette, with good quality Cabernet Sauvignon from gravel terroir, in place as of this 2022 blend vitage.
Robert Parker 90-92+
The 2022 Chasse-Spleen was showing especially well, bursting with aromas of cassis and plums mingled with licorice and pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, rich and fleshy, with levels of texture and mid-palate amplitude unusual at this address in recent years, this supple, charming Moulis should offer a broad drinking window.
