Chasse Spleen (6.0L)

From Moulis-en-Medoc

Vintage: 2009
Description: 92 JS / 91 Wa / 90 Ws. Shows pretty plum and spice character, with full body, velvety tannins and a dried lemon and subtle fruit aftertaste. Rich and structured. Try in 2016. - James Suckling. Tasted at the Union de Grand Cru in London. The Chasse Spleen is just a little disjointed on the nose at the moment, but comes together with aeration with touches of cigar box, raspberry coulis and Tiptree raspberry jam. The palate is medium-bodied with a supple entry, high extraction with quite a rich, plum and blackberry tinged finish that coats the mouth but just lacks a little finesse. Tasted October 2011. - Neal Martin, Wine Advocate. This polished, precise red exhibits delicious mulled black cherry, sleek cassis and dark plum fruit all inlaid with hints of toasted spice and mesquite. A nice flash of chalk helps give the finish cut. Drink now through 2015. 29,165 cases made. - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator
