Château du Moulin Rouge Haut-Médoc 2018
The 2018 Château du Moulin Haut-Médoc opens to inviting aromatics of blackberries and candied cherries, followed by herbs, minerals and tobacco nuances, which burst from the glass. The mineral-driven palate is medium-bodied, well balanced and structured with fine tannins, leading into the finish, which is marked by flavors of cherries and spices. Overall, this is a lovey showing and a wonderful example of the depth of quality which can be found from the vintage.
Médoc wines tend to be ruby in color, balanced and well-rounded on the palate with notes of cassis, cherries and earth, with firm tannins. While most Bordeaux wines require aging, those labeled simply ‘Médoc’ tend to be lighter in style and more approachable in their youth. Grown on gravel rich soils in the Left Bank of Bordeaux, wines from the Médoc are predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot blends, but sometimes see the addition of Petit Verdot and Malbec.
Tasting notes: currant, blackberry, cherry, bell pepper, olive, asparagus, spice, ginger, oak, vanilla, black cherry, plum, smoke, toast and tar
Nose: currant, blackberry, cherry, cedar, cigar box, violet, rose, truffle, earth, coffee and leather
