Slight smoky minerality on the nose but then very dry on the palate even though the tannins are quite light. (JH)

Notably full and soft on the nose. Odd, powdery note. Dense and thick and trying very hard. Trying to be a smart classed growth in fact. Certainly seriousness of intention is there. Pretty dry finish and very cool. Could do with just a tad more acidity and life but not bad.) (JR)
About the producer
Maucaillou
Owned by the négociant Dourthe, this Moulis property has 87 hectares of vines today (with 67 added by Philippe Dourthe since 1967). Managed and made by an expert team, the quality here is hardly surprising.
