Tasting notes
The 2021 Château Moulinet-Lasserre is a blend of 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and the rest Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon. Ripe black cherries, red plums, damp earth, tobacco, and some underbrush notes all define the nose, and it's medium-bodied, with a round, supple, elegant texture, ripe yet present tannins, and a great finish.

The 2021 Moulinet-Lasserre was picked in 28 September. This has darker fruit on the nose, undergrowth and pressed flowers, a little introspective. The palate is medium-bodied with light tannins, well-balanced, just missing a little substance towards the finish. As such, it should drink well for four to seven years, though I am not convinced further bottle age will be necessary.
75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, 4.5% Malbec, 0.5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Cask sample . Dark pastille-fruit notes with a hint of spice. Soft and supple on attack but with a certain tension. Lively with substance but slightly dry finish. (JL)
