Tasting Notes and Scores

89-91 NM

A blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Merlot and 7% Petit Verdot, this has a very ripe, somehow rather airy notes that seems to float along the ether. Mouth-coating tannins, very ripe and rounded, quite opulent with a touch of spice, dark vibrant black fruits interwoven with black plum and cassis, leading to a well-defined, peppery finish. Very fine. Tasted March 2010.

16.5 MS

65CS/28M/7PV] A striking nose of sweetly ripe, mineral backed blackberries; very nicely balanced middleweight with a good concentration and very fine, though moderately long term, tannin; a notable sweetness of mineral marked fruit with a lovely freshness; elegant, richly textured wine with lovely length. A particularly polished Moulin Riche, most likely the best yet. 2018-28
