2015 Chasse-Spleen from the Moulis appellation is more masculine than in previous years. However, the wine is still very charming. The nose reveals a very light toasted character – which will fade while aging – before giving way to elegant black fruit and balsamic notes. The wine gradually settles in the mouth to reveal a beautiful intensity, definite wood characteristics. Somewhat austere, the wine still displays lovely tangy aromas of wild strawberry. The wine has a good length, with a very nice structure. Time will be on the side of Chasse-Slpeen 2015, and this will make beautiful wine for laying down.

Red Blend – cabernet sauvignon, merlot, petit verdot./ ABV 13.5%
