2010 Château Chasse-Spleen, Moulis-en-Médoc, Bordeaux

Description

In vintages like 2010 Ch. Chasse-Spleen really comes into its own, notes of subtle black fruit and graphite on the nose lead on to a full, mouth-filling palate of black berry fruit, minerals and spice. As with many 2010s this wine is elegant and refined, yet has underlying power and definition. To be able to pull a couple of cases of this out of the cellar in 5-10 years’ time would be a real treat.

Chateau Chasse-Spleen Moulis is definitely a property on the move; the 2008-2010 are three amazing vintages. The 2010 has lovely juicy black cherries with a touch of strawberry jam on the nose. The wine has great power in the middle with intense crunchy fresh fruits, a very well balanced finish and well integrated tannins. Tip top!

Critics reviews

Robert Parker 90/100
A beautiful effort from Chasse-Spleen, this dense purple wine exhibits plenty of black currant and black cherry fruit with some licorice, roasted herbs and forest floor. Medium to full-bodied and supple, the final blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon and 45% Merlot has produced a fleshy, succulent style of Chasse-Spleen to drink over the next 15+ years.Robert M.

Chateau Chasse-Spleen 2010 Moulis is dense and blackish. Creamy texture but an odd aroma. Something reminiscent of soap and perhaps some unusual oak? Pretty ripe and luscious though. If this is the quality that can be achieved in a lesser classed growth, this is a very special vintage. Just a bit drying and short on the finish. jancis_robinson_mw MW- jancis_robinson_mw.com 13 Apr 2011

Beautifully extracted cassis fruit, already showing complexity, tightly-knit and will age well.

Lightly firm plum skin and cherry pit notes weave through the core of plum sauce, currant and blackberry fruit, with a perfumy tobacco-tinged finish. A touch old-school. james_molesworth – The Wine Spectator –Mar 2011

With impressive depth and length, this pure Moulis should drink well for 15+ years. 89-90 robert_parker- Wine Advocate- May 2011
