Château CHASSE-SPLEEN 1992

Château Chasse-Spleen is located in the Moulis-en-Médoc appellation, in the Bordeaux wine region. The estate was formed in 1820, when the Grand Poujeaux estate was split into two parts: Poujeaux Gressier and Poujeaux-Castaing. The latter was renamed Chasse-Spleen in 1863 following other divisions. The name refers to the quality of the wine and its ability to "dispel spleen", a phrase said to have been uttered by Lord Byron during his visit to Poujeaux-Castaing in 1821. The estate has also been linked to the French poet Baudelaire , known for his main work, Les Fleurs du Mal which contains many works titled "Spleen". The estate was purchased by Jacques Merlaut in 1976 and has been managed since 2000 by his granddaughter, Céline Villars .

Chasse-Spleen 1992 is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot . The wine is aged for 12 to 18 months in French oak barrels, 40% of which are new. The 1992 vintage had a cold winter that eventually turned into a warm spring causing early flowering. However, these mild conditions did not last as the summer saw the most precipitation of any summer in the last 50 years. This led to a burst of growth and green harvesting was a necessity. A cool September might have recovered the vintage, but the continuous downpour during the October harvest period did not improve the situation.

Grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot
