119.00 € Tax included

Château Chasse-Spleen 2018 is a great red wine from Bordeaux, an exceptional cru bourgeois located in Moulis-en-Médoc.It is offered here in a magnum size, a 1.5-litre bottle

A very fine 2018 vintage that difficult conditions have reduced in volume, 30% of that of an average year, with a blend still dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon where we find a little more Petit-Verdot and Cabernet Franc than normal. It offers intense blackberry aromas and spicy notes on the nose. On the palate, the attack is fresh and expressive, the substance well structured, tense, with powerful and supple tannins, slightly chalky notes, with a very persistent finish on cocoa touches.

It can be enjoyed today and can be kept until about 2040-2045.

An exceptional wines that can compete in its best years with the best classified growths of the Médoc, it is hardly surprising to see that Charles Baudelaire and Lord Byron were prestigious ambassadors of Château Chasse-Spleen.
