Château Gressier Grand Poujeaux - Moulis-en-Médoc - Rouge - 2015

The 2015 red Moulis-en-Médoc Château Gressier Grand Poujeaux has all the promise of a great Bordeaux wine in perfect evolution.

Rack of lamb with sage, entrecôte with pepper, duck breast with spices.

Cellar aging:

From now until 2027

The original base of Chasse-Spleen, on the Grand Poujeaux hilltop, the terroir of Château Gressier Grand Poujeaux delivers on all its promises. Historically linked to the flagship Moulis estate with which it is intimately intertwined by intersecting plots, Gressier has regained its independence and is now asserting its style under the aegis of the Chasse-Spleen teams.

The 7 hectares of Cabernet-Sauvignon and Merlot are perfectly suited to the gravel, clay and limestone of this rather unusual terroir, producing a robust, slender Bordeaux with an eminently Médoc profile.
