Chateau Poujeaux Moulis En Medoc 2016 (750ml)
Elegant and deeply satisfying, the 2016 Poujeaux opens with aromas of blackberry, blueberry and orange peel, layered with hints of hazelnut, walnut and violets. The palate is medium to full-bodied, revealing a core of juicy black fruits framed by polished, fresh tannins. A touch of graphite and earthy spice adds complexity, while the finish is long and textured with a subtle mineral edge. Balanced and beautifully crafted, it will reward cellaring through 2028 and beyond.

A restrained style, but with a tasty core of juicy plum and red currant fruit that melds with light mulling spice, black tea and sanguine notes. There's a dusting of cedar on the finish. Drink now through 2028. 12,500 cases made.

An outstanding Moulis made with consulting help from Stéphane Derenoncourt, the 2016 Château Poujeaux offers up a rock star, medium to full-bodied, layered profile as well as pretty notes of ripe black fruits, graphite, violets, and background oak. Give this sleeper 2-3 years of bottle age and it will impress for a decade or more.
