Note di degustazione
From a cooler terroir just across from Ausone and aged 18 months in 100% new barrels, the 2023 Château Moulin Saint Georges offers up cassis, crushed stone, flint, and violet nuances. It's medium-bodied, with a pure, graceful, layered mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and integrated acidity. I love the overall balance here, and it has the fresher profile of the terroir, perfectly integrated oak, and a great finish. It's going to benefit from 2-4 years of bottle age and keep for two decades. It's a beautiful wine. Drink 2028-2045.

The 2023 Moulin Saint-Georges is soft, supple and quite attractive. Bright citrus and floral notes lift a core of vibrant red-toned fruit. Blood orange, white pepper, mint and chalk follow, adding layers of tension and energy. Clean saline notes support the brisk finish.
The 2023 Moulin Saint-Georges has a lighter and more floral bouquet than the preceding de Fonbel, peony and iris infusing the mainly black fruit, just a touch of vanilla in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy, ripe tannins. I admire the texture on this Saint-Émilion, very silky yet with counterbalancing acidity, dovetailing into a peppery and quite persistent finish. This punches above my expectations from barrel.
A blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, the 2023 Moulin Saint-Georges has a deep garnet-purple color. It features fragrant notions of rose bud tea and cinnamon stick, leading to a core of red and black plums, charcoal, and bay leaves. The medium-bodied palate offers refreshing red fruit and baking spice flavors, with a lively line and plush tannins, finishing on an earthy note.
