Château Maucaillou - Moulis - Rouge - 2023

Château Maucaillou is an essential Médoc cru, unanimously acclaimed, and has long found its audience. A marvellous ambassador for the Médoc, its wines are so unifying that Robert Parker has no hesitation in comparing it to a Grand Cru Classé... There's no doubt that it would deserve this distinction, if its vineyards had been created before 1855! As a worthy representative of the Médoc, he demonstrates vintage after vintage that he excels in the art of presenting wines that are immediately accessible, and whose aging capacity is unquestionable.

This 2023 vintage makes him a good ambassador for accessible Bordeaux, with a supple, pleasant, well-constituted style. A real gem at this price level!
