Description

Château Poujeaux 2016

Appellation: Moulis-en-Médoc, Bordeaux, France

Classification: Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel

Ownership: Miailhe family

Grape varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot

Vintage: 2016

Origin and background

The 2016 vintage, characterised by a hot, dry summer followed by a temperate autumn, enabled the grapes to ripen slowly and completely. Château Poujeaux, located on the gravelly terroir of Moulis, produces a balanced, powerful and elegant wine, true to the style of the estate.

Tasting

Colour: Deep red with purple highlights.

Nose: Complex and intense. Aromas of ripe black fruit (blackcurrant, blackberry), spicy notes (pepper, liquorice), floral touches and woody nuances (cedar, vanilla).

Palate: Full, supple attack. Well-structured, silky, well-integrated tannins. Rich, balanced mid-palate with generous fruit and invigorating acidity. Long, harmonious finish with spicy, woody notes.

Review

Suggested pairings

Ideal with grilled or roasted red meats, meat-based dishes in sauce (civet, daube) and mature hard or blue-veined cheeses. Its structure and elegance make it a perfect accompaniment to rich, flavoursome dishes.
