Note di degustazione
Deeply colored, the 2018 Château Puy-Blanquet checks in as 85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon from a 20-hectare parcel of clay and limestone soils. Beautifully ripe and sexy, with a massive bouquet of blackcurrants, macerated black cherries, and smoked earth, it's full-bodied, opulent, and layered on the palate, with serious fruit. This brilliant wine will be approachable in its youth yet also evolve gracefully for 15 years or more. It should also be an incredible value.

85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon on clay-limestone. Barrel sample. This was the first wine I tasted in the Moueix range. Deepest crimson. Ripe, tangy and sweet like fresh mulberries on the nose. Rich, velvety texture, so smooth and caressing. Deep-fruited and generous, with a bite of freshness to keep it in shape. Could well be relatively GV . (JH)
The 2018 Puy-Blanquet is a rich, creamy and sensual wine with tremendous near and medium term appeal. In 2018, Puy-Blanquet is especially lush, almost shockingly so, for a Saint-Émilion that is usually quite classic in feel. Inky red and purplish berry fruit, spice, rose petal and mint build as this silky, pliant Saint-Émilion shows off its racy, inviting personality. Don't miss it.
