2023 Château Mauvesin Barton, Moulis-en-Médoc, Bordeaux

Description

Blend: 56% Cabernet Sauvignon; 43% Merlot; 1% Cabernet Franc.

Mauvesin Barton has gone from strength-to-strength under the expertise of the Barton family, owners since 2011. Damien mentions the large replanting effort undertaken to ensure the correct varietals are planted in the most suitable plots across the property. Merlot and Cabernet Franc perform well here thanks to the clay-gravels soils with some plots containing finer gravel soils, allowing the Cabernet Sauvignon planted to reach full phenolic ripeness. The palate is generously filled with juicy, dark fruits with firm tannins providing necessary structure.

About this wine

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.
