Château Chasse-Spleen 2017 is a great Bordeaux red wine and cru bourgeois, located in Moulis-en-Médoc, a good vintage marked by a mild and dry winter, hit by frost at the end of April. The rest of the year was classic, with some high temperatures in August. The spared bunches ripened normally, the harvest began in mid-September and lasted a little. The Cabernet proved to be superb.

It has a dark, bright and clear garnet colour, and a nose of fresh fruit, spices, brioche and toast. The palate is fresh and expressive, the structure taut with tannins that are both powerful and tender, and the finish rich and persistent. It can be enjoyed now or stored in the cellar until around 2040.

An exceptional wine 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. Find the wines of Château Chasse-Spleen currently on sale at the Bouteille Dorée.

You can also find all the wines of the 2017 vintage and the selection of Médoc crus bourgeois currently on sale at La Bouteille Dorée.
