Nice tannins and silky fruit, pretty impressive texture and density, with coolness and vibrancy, too. This is well balanced and fresh with a sense of energy, notes of kirsch and plums, crushed rocks and pot pourri.
Blended of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, the 2018 Moulin Saint-Georges is deep purple-black colored and opens slowly to display notions of sautéed herbs, menthol and pencil shavings over a core of chocolate-covered cherries, baked plums and cedar plus a waft of potpourri. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is elegantly played with lively, juicy fruit framed by plush tannins and finishes with a floral skip in its step.
The alcohols are a touch higher than usual here, as at Ausone, but it retains an excellent fresh feel. This is always my wine to buy from the Vauthier lineup for the 95% of us who can't afford Ausone, and here again it is gorgeous, with the most perfect line of sight to the generous black fruits, showing sapidity and juice. 100% new oak.
This shows brightness and firmness with lovely tannin and acidity balance to the ripe fruit. Racy at the end.
The 2018 Moulin Saint-Georges is plump, juicy and absolutely delicious. Although not especially complex, Moulin Saint-Georges has a sense of immediacy that is positively irresistible. Inky dark fruit, lavender, mint and licorice all flesh out in a juicy, lush Saint-Émilion that will drink well with minimal cellaring.
