2017 Château Moulin de la Rose, Saint-Julien

We are fortunate to have shipped a rare, small parcel of the 2017 vintage from this tiny 5-hectare property. The vineyards are situated on gravel hilltops in the Beychevelle hamlet, rubbing shoulders with other world-famous names like the Léovilles, Barton & Las Cases, with Gruaud-Larose and Ducru-Beaucaillou. Aromas are beautifully open and floral, with enticing red and black fruits to the fore. The texture is silky, very fine, with ample flesh and super intensity. Tannins have softened to give a harmonious, elegant, long-flavoured finish. A lovely Saint-Julien for drinking now and over the next five to eight years (65% Cabernet Sauvignon / 35% Merlot).
