| CHATEAU MOULIN DE GRENET 2015 AC Lussac Saint-Émilion |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
|
| Fairly deep purple red colour. Fairly intense, slightly spicy, red licorice nose with some ripe plum-cherry notes and a touch of cedar. Dry, medium bodied, smooth, albeit lively, slightly spicy, fairly intense, fresh ripe plum-cherry flavours with a lingering, sandalwood-tinged finish. Quite harmonious and ready-to-drink, this tasty blend of 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon has 13.5% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L1L515A8 12/04/17 on the lower part of the glass bottle. Lussac-Saint-Émilion is located on the right bank of the Garonne and Dordogne rivers, about 45 kilometres east of the city of Bordeaux and only 9 kilometres from the medieval village of Saint-Émilion. TONY ASPLER - 89-points - BEST BUY - Cedary, slightly earthy, ripe blackberry and blueberry nose with a light floral note; medium-bodied, dry, well-extracted, bitter chocolate and black cherry flavours; quite firmly structured with ripe tannins. There are 447 cases available and it is a fine buy for both fans of Bordeaux and licensees for the wine list. |
