Winery Review: A
beautiful burgundy red sustained brilliant and clear. A wide nose, generous
where there are notes of fresh red fruits associated with smoke and spice
finishing on a fine oak. The palate is straightforward with a nice tannic
structure and includes aromas of the nose. Perfectly located on the edge of the
Pomerol appellation, the Château MOULIN DE LAVAUD produces a harmonious wine
which combines power, roundness and finesse. (Translated from Winery’s Notes)
My Review: This
wine smelled like merlot and dog poop. The deep red ruby color indicated its
fuller-bodied profile. On the palate, this wine was super smooth and suggested
flavors earth, dirt and cherries. The tannic finish of this wine lingered and
gave a final push of herb and blackberries. I liked this one.
