Saint-Émilion is “Bordeaux’s most exciting region,” writes critic Robert Parker. This storied appellation produces some of the world’s most sought-after Merlot-based wines. And you’ll have delicious proof in this fine Grand Cru.
Château Moine Vieux marries Merlot with dashes of Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, all grown during Saint-Émilion’s historic 2015 vintage. After a patient slumber in top-notch oak barrels, the wine debuted to serious fanfare, winning a Gilbert & Gaillard gold medal and 90 points from expert James Suckling.
Critic Antonio Galloni was also impressed, writing that Château Moine Vieux is “pliant, supple and delicious.” At seven years of age, this elegant Grand Cru is just entering its optimal drinking window. You’re in for ripe plum, black currant and toasty spice aromas and flavors. Enjoy it alongside beef, duck or hearty risottos.
To put a finer point on it, “the 2015 Bordeaux vintage is extraordinary. You’re going to want to get your hands on some” (Suckling). And this is no ordinary Bordeaux wine. Hurry to secure your share of our limited cases.
