Uva(s): 80% Merlot e 20% Cabernet Franc.
Apelação: Saint Emilion Grand Cru
Descrição:
A história do Château Moulin Saint-Georges está intimamente ligada à do Château Ausone, uma vez que a propriedade também pertence à família Vauthier. Foi adquirido muito antes do Premier Grand Cru Classé, pois remonta a 1921. O 2018 parecia um pouco subestimado aromaticamente, mas isso vai chegar. O paladar é muito exuberante, mas com boa estrutura e um atraente caráter achocolatado, doce e maduro do Merlot. Um prazer para o público, no melhor sentido. A mistura final é feita em torno de 85% Merlot e 15% Cabernet Franc, onde o poder encontra o frescor, onde o charme do Merlot se mistura com a profundidade do Cabernet Franc. Moulin-Saint-Georges é um dos segredos mais bem guardados de Saint-Emilion.
Wine Advocate-Parker:
Composed of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, the 2018 Moulin Saint-Georges has a medium to deep garnet-purple color, rolling effortlessly out of the glass with notes of black cherry compote, blueberry preserves and ripe plum, plus touches of pencil shavings and fallen leaves. The medium-bodied palate is coated with crunchy black fruits, supported by a racy line and just enough textural friction, finishing long and savory. It's delicious right now, but I suspect 5-7 years of cellaring is going to reveal a whole other pleasure level.
VertdeVin:
The nose is fruity, gourmand and offers elegance as well as freshness. It reveals notes of fresh blackberry, juicy/fresh violet plum, small notes of violet associated with fine touches of fresh lily as well as very fine hints of fresh mild tobacco and a discreet sappy hint/Badiane. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers an acidulous frame, juiciness, elegance, a small fat as well as a beautiful freshness, a beautiful suavity and a small minerality. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy/ripe cassis, blackberry, small notes of juicy/crunchy violet plum associated with small touches of violet, lily, crunchy raspberry as well as fine hints of nutmeg, sugared mild tobacco and a hint of liquorice. Good length. Tannins are well-built. A subtle hint of mocha on the persistence.
