A satin-smooth Moulis
Chateau Chasse-Spleen 2016 is a Moulis that was produced under exceptional conditions. Grape harvest occurred late and the weather allowed them to reach perfect maturity.
Chateau Chasse-Spleen 2016 was produced with 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc. A blend typical of the Medoc, using all aspects of the grape varieties, uses the special characteristics to create elegant wines.
The colour is a deep garnet, limpid and bright. Chateau Chasse-Spleen 2016 has a very expressive nose. Aromas of black cherries and fresh roses are present. After aeration, notes of blackberries and pink peppercorn. The mouth is voluminous with a dense tannic framework. The tannins are tight, fine and satin-smooth. The finish is persistent with cocoa powder and liquorice. There is no doubt that this Moulis has wonderful potential for ageing and should be opened from 2022-2045.
