2016 Chateau Branas Grand Poujeaux (750ml)

Merlot from Moulis, Bordeaux, France

93WE
92V

The sector of Poujeaux is one of the most prestigious in Moulis. This wine, from a 29-acre estate, is rich in tannins and dense in opulent black fruit. It is a powerful statement, tempered by acidity that gives a final lift. Drink from 2023.

The 2016 Branas Grand Poujeaux has a lovely bouquet with brambly red berry fruit, cedar, touches of mint and star anis. This is well defined and focused. The palate is lithe and pliant, fleshy but structured with gentle grip towards the finish. This Moulis seems to revel in a benevolent growing season with just the right amount of bitterness on the finish. Lots of potential here - one of the finest releases to date. Tasted at the Branas Grand Poujeaux vertical at the château.

The black-cherry and blackcurrant aromas are enticing. Medium body, firm and silky tannins and a clean, fresh finish. Shows intensity and clean acidity. Drink after 2020.
