Le Moulin (Pomerol)
-
(6x150cl) 1997Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (87-88)
Full deep red. Alluring aromas of raspberry, coffee, brown spices and nutty oak. Lush, fruity and sweet; holds its shape nicely through to the firm, ripe finish. A very good sample. My sample of the '98 was impressively dense and lush, but showed a distinctly oxidized raisiny quality; I assume this example was not representative. Judgement deferred.Inc. VAT£775.79 -
(12x75cl) 1998Chateau Le Moulin 1998 is an exquisitely crafted Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, hailing from the reputable winemaking region of Bordeaux, France. The producer utilises traditional vinification methods, using predominantly hand-harvested Merlot grapes, to deliver a robust and complex wine. Aged in French oak for a year, this vintage presents a rich, deep garnet colour, signifying its maturity. It strikes the senses with a delightful bouquet of dark chocolate and ripe red fruits with subtle hints of spice and oak. The well-integrated tannins impart a long-lasting finish. Chateau Le Moulin 1998 has elegantly evolved over the years, with its richness improved by storied complexity. As expected from a wine of its pedigree, it pairs perfectly with robust, meaty dishes. Appreciation for Chateau Le Moulin 1998 goes beyond mere consumption; every sip is a tribute to the meticulous craftsmanship and time-honoured tradition of its producer.

(12x75cl) 2005Vinous - Antonio Galloni (90)
The 2005 Le Moulin is an attractive, mid-weight, yet full mature Pomerol. Sweet dried cherry, herbs, mint, anise and worn-in leather open nicely. I would prefer to finish any remaining bottles sooner rather than later. Le Moulin is not super complex, but it is delicious and has aged well.Inc. VAT£762.41
