Note di degustazione
This feels a bit muted at the moment, but with air a lift of blue fruit emerges. This is light, fresh, old school Claret on the palate. The tannins are slightly severe at the moment, but will tame with time, complementing a core of bright crunchy freshness and that saline freshness that makes the best Bordeaux such a joy with food. Despite the warm, dry summer, this is bright and almost red-fruited, with a long, fresh finish. A reliable, bargain Claret that will offer much drinking pleasure.

Tasted blind. Deep crimson. Dark-fruited and perfumed with violets. Open and fragrant but a little bit lean on the mid palate, though the fruit came back on the finish. (JH)
The 2020 Chasse-Spleen has a ripe nose of blackcurrant and strawberry pastille, a little more opulent than its Left Bank peers. The palate is well balanced with plenty of fruit and a touch more rondeur /lower acidity, but it doesn't compromise on freshness and fans out nicely toward the finish. This is very promising. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting.
The 2020 Chasse-Spleen exhibits aromas of cassis, plums, pencil shavings and dark chocolate, followed by a medium to full-bodied palate that's firmer and more austere than its 2019 counterpart, with powdery tannins asserting themselves on the dry finish.

If there’s one Moulis estate you know, it is likely Chasse-Spleen, today owned by the Foubet family. Vines have been planted here since the 16th century, and today it has an impressive 100 hectares to its name.
