Moulis en Medoc

The 2009 Chateau Chasse-Spleen stands as a profound testament to a legendary vintage in the Moulis-en-Medoc appellation. Upon pouring, this wine reveals a deep, brooding garnet hue, yielding an intoxicating bouquet of crushed blackberries, blackcurrant preserve, and subtle notes of graphite, cedar, and tobacco leaf. It is a masterclass in balance, marrying the ripeness and opulence of the 2009 growing season with the structural precision and classic restraint that the estate is renowned for. On the palate, the wine unfurls with silky, well-integrated tannins and a core of dark, concentrated fruit that dances with whispers of violets and forest floor. The finish is remarkably persistent, leaving an impression of elegance, power, and timeless pedigree that distinguishes this bottle as a true jewel of the Left Bank.
