Description

When we drove to the Right Bank, the last thing we expected was to be blown away by Ch. Poujeaux - but this wine turned out to be the greatest (and most pleasant) surprise of the day. With the vibrant, deep inky colour of the vintage and dense, juicy blackcurrant fruit with a lovely earthy complexity, this wine just oozes with super-ripe tannins and harmonious oak. One to add to the Wish List.

"Having sold out of Ch. du Tertre in an hour this morning, we have a another cracker to offer and it is actually slightly cheaper than I thought it was going to be too! With a vibrant, deep inky colour and dense, juicy, blackcurrant fruit held together by a lovely earthy complexity, this wine just oozes pleasure. It is very rare we offer Ch. Poujeaux but none of either the buying or selling teams has tasted such a fabulous offering. One to add to the cellar."

Moulis

Moulis

Moulis is the smallest of the six Médoc communes but boasts a wide variety of soils and terroirs. One of the two communal appellations located on the Atlantic side of the Médoc, its hilly country is studded with a diversity of gravels, limestone and clay. These are sturdy wines, but the best are capable of considerable longevity and are often seductively perfumed, with more power than Margaux wines – albeit less finesse and elegance.
