It may only contain 15% Cabernet Franc, but that grape imparts its signature perfume to this firmly dark wine. The tannins are ripe, if dry, the richness full, and the red plum and blackberry flavors are elegantly exuberant.

Rich, yet firmly structured, this wine comes from Christian Moeuix’s home territory. It’s no surprise then that it is a great expression of the appellation, a full expression of ripe Merlot, truffles, fruitcake, generous tannins and a tobacco-scented finish.

A fine, slightly mineral wine, packed with tight tannins, but also with the rich fruits of the vintage. It is well balanced, the acidity sitting easily with the sweet, jammy fruit flavors. Dryness and some austerity mark this wine as a fine partner for food.

With 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, this shows its origins in the gravel soils of the northern Médoc. The fruit is ripe, very pure and fresh, dominated by black currant acidity, with an edge of cranberry tannin. There’s a dry core here, which gives the wine a firm structure.

A young, very fruity wine produced by Christian Moueix. It is structured, firm and juicy, layered with dry tannins, probably needing 6–12 months of aging. A touch of pepper, red currants, toast and acidity complete this good, very Bordeaux, wine.
