Château Moulin de l'Esperance 2022
Château Moulin de l'Espérance is a family estate located in the heart of the Bordeaux vineyards, on perfectly exposed clay-limestone hillsides. Steeped in tradition, the estate emphasizes quality vineyard work and precise vinification to produce generous, balanced wines that fully express the character of Bordeaux Supérieur.
The 2022 vintage was particularly favorable, producing grapes at optimal ripeness thanks to a hot, dry summer followed by a beautiful late season. Made from Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine was aged in oak barrels, giving the cuvée depth and complexity. This aging choice brings structure, roundness, and a subtle oaky touch, without altering the purity of the fruit.
The nose reveals charming aromas of ripe red fruits, cherry, and blackcurrant, supported by notes of vanilla, toast, and cocoa. On the palate, the texture is ample and silky, supported by melted tannins and a beautiful freshness. The mid-palate, rich and balanced, expresses the lusciousness of Merlot and the straightforwardness of Cabernet. The finish, long and harmonious, reveals delicate nuances of spices and noble wood.
An elegant and accessible Bordeaux Supérieur, ideal for enjoying today with grilled red meat, roast poultry, or mature cheese. Serve between 16 and 17°C.
Grape varieties: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvigno
