96 Points and Gold Medal from Decanter!
Château Moulis, whose wines were praised in the 1876 edition of the Féret guide, has been owned by the Lasserre family since the 17th century and has prospered for over three centuries. Its wines, classified as Cru Bourgeois Supérieur, have won numerous awards: a silver medal at the 1882 Bordeaux Exhibition, a gold medal at the 1885 Antwerp Universal Exhibition and a gold medal at the 1900 Paris Exhibition. Happy to find themselves in this haven of peace, the family's heirs unfortunately had to part with it.
Château Moulis is now a family project and an estate that encompasses almost 13 hectares and two wines: Château Graveyron Poujeaux and Château Moulis. Situated on a rich terroir of Günz clay and gravel, it is being transformed to become one of the benchmark properties of the appellation. And if you did not know, Moulis en Medoc is a next door neighbor to the high priced real estate of Margaux!
The blend is 60% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon with all grapes manually picked, and zero herbicides used in any of the farming. The wine was aged in New French Oak (Troncais Forest) in both 500 Liter and 225 Liter Barrels.
Decanter rated it 96 Points AND gave it a Gold Medal raving 'Warm and meaty, with a note reminiscent of pounded raw steak alongside gruff elderberry, black cherry and cassis. Concentrated, dark, plunging black fruits are carried by lively acidity which keeps it driving and long. Outstanding.'
