Château Poujeaux Moulis 375ml 2016

Château Poujeaux Moulis is a Left Bank Bordeaux red from Moulis-en-Médoc, built on Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot with Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc.

Moulis is the smallest communal appellation in the Médoc, a strip of deep gravel ridges set back from the Gironde, and this has long been one of its two benchmark estates. Classified Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel, it has belonged to the Cuvelier family since 2008. Gravel over clay and limestone gives Cabernet the drainage it needs and holds enough water for dry summers. Parcels are vinified separately, blended and aged a little over a year in French oak, some new, for a firm, long-lived style that feels closer to a classed growth.

Tightly knit and full-bodied, with blackcurrant, graphite and cedar. Serve at 17-18°C with rare roast beef, duck or hard cheese. The half-bottle is right for two at one meal and matures a little faster than a 750ml.
