Château Moulin Saint-Georges 2018, Saint-Émilion Grand Cru - Parker 93+
(€83.33 L)
A medium-bodied wine with notes of crunchy black fruits and spices. Rich texture and a long, savory finish.
Winemaker and Vineyard: The vineyard of Château Moulin-Saint-Georges spans 8 hectares where Merlot reigns supreme, with a few plots of Cabernet Franc. On this clay-limestone signature, the planting density can vary from 5,500 to 12,600 feet per hectare. The wine that emerges from this exceptional terroir is the fruit of significant soil and vine work. After manual harvesting and parcel sorting, the juices undergo traditional fermentation in stainless steel tanks followed by aging 100% in new barrels.
Tasting: Composed of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, the 2018 Moulin Saint-Georges has a medium to deep garnet-purple color, rolling effortlessly out of the glass with notes of black cherry compote, blueberry preserves and ripe plum, plus touches of pencil shavings and fallen leaves. The medium-bodied palate is coated with crunchy black fruits, supported by a racy line and just enough textural friction, finishing long and savory. It's delicious right now, but I suspect 5-7 years of cellaring is going to reveal a whole other pleasure level. (31.03.2021, robertparker.com)
Service: Serve at room temperature (16-18°C) to accompany a guinea fowl leg with morels.
