Description

Château Moulin, Merlot, Canon Fronsac, Bordeaux, France 2016100% Merlot A nose brimming with pure red fruit and cassis, with whiffs of earth and mint, and a palate as soft and supple as a Debussy nocturne. Organic viticulture. Natural fermentation with indigenous yeasts takes place in temperature controlled stainless steel or lined concrete tanks, and lasts three weeks. Regular pumpovers and punchdowns. Parcels are vinified separately, then blended before levage. One year levage in 2 and 3 year old barriques.
