Description
Robert Parker: Now under full control of the Moueix family, with
Christian Moueix's son Edouard managing the estate, and their new
technical director Eric Murisasco (who replaced Jean-Claude
Berrouet) making the wine, I expect this property to soar starting
with the 2008 and beyond. This is a great terroir that was horribly
under-exploited and managed by the previous regime, and there is no
reason why it cannot perform close to the level of Ausone, which is
one of its neighbors. In 2006 the Moueix family did not own the
estate outright, but did have some influence, and the 2006 is
certainly a good effort, with notes of kirsch liqueur, crushed
rock, and some subtle herbs in a medium-bodied, finesse-styled wine
that should be drunk over the next 10-12 years.
