Our opinion
*** Decanter, 90-92/100 R.Parker, 17/20 Le Point. This wine has a very intense dark ruby colour turning towards nuances of purple on the edge of the glass. On the nose, one is welcomed by extreme finesse with fruity notes of blackcurrant, blueberries, cranberry, coffee, toasted and smoky scents. The wine already shows great complexity. A more tarry taste shows the concentration of the wine. It has a smooth and rich attack followed by acidity that is made more pronounced by the fine tannins. The structure is very locked and still disassociated with the wine. A wine that we enjoyed for its elegance and class.

Description
*** Decanter, 90-92/100 R.Parker, 17/20 Le Point. This Chateau came from nowhere at the beginning of the 80's. Today Mouilin Haut Laroque produces complex well structured structured wines with a lot of potential at very reasonable prices. One of our best offers in our Primeur selection!! Not to be missed!
