2015 was a classic vintage in Bordeaux – Jane Anson rated the Left Bank reds 4.5 out of 5. This cru bourgeois property in Moulis-en-Médoc owns 30ha of vines, which are 30 years old on average. This blend of two-thirds Cabernet Sauvignon, with Merlot and a dash of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc added has good depth and grip, with dark plum and bramble fruit, mocha and boot polish notes. A steal at this price, drinking beautifully.
