made entirely from Tempranillo as a saignee style

A fine and quite flinty modern expression of Margaret River Chardonnay

but bright expression of a Blewitt Springs Shiraz… Subtle complexity

Chateau Poujeaux (Moulis) 2019 bruno-paillard made entirely from Tempranillo asFull red ruby. Bright aromas of dark raspberry, licorice, minerals and espresso are lifted by a floral high note. Juicy, spicy and sharply delineated, with excellent energy to the ripe, complex flavors of dark berries, lead pencil and spices. This very fresh wine shows a very firm spine to support a leisurely evolution in bottle without coming across as austere today. An excellent and serious Poujeaux.
