Although contiguous to Poujeaux, Chasse-Spleen offers another face to Moulis wines, more tannic and, in its first youth, more austere. A great Medoc classic.

The 2019 vintage in the press:
Vinous (N. Martin - January 2023): 90+/100 “The 2019 Chasse-Spleen has a well-defined bouquet with blackberry and bilberry fruit, undergrowth and tobacco - classic Médoc really. The palate is medium-bodied with plenty of feisty red fruit, modest depth and showing some austerity towards the finish. A more cerebral Left Bank 2019, though I would have liked a bit more persistence. This might be entering an awkward adolescence".

Vinous (A Galloni - December 2017): 93/100 "The 2016 Chasse-Spleen has a wonderful, detailed mineral-driven bouquet that feels like a coiled spring at the moment. The harmonious palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, impressive depth and a pure but grippy, convicing finish. One of the best Chasse-Spleen in recent years. Bravo! This might represent one of the best quality-to-price- ratios on the Left Bank."

The 2015 vintage in the press:
Vinous (A Galloni - December 2017): 90/100 "The 2015 Chasse-Spleen is a wine of finesse and grace. Floral notes, spice, leather and mint are beautifully delineated in this attractive, midweight wine. All the elements are very nicely balanced. Bright, saline notes extend the finish. readers who appreciate the finer side of Bordeaux will flip out over the 2015."

The 2014 vintage in the press:
Vinous (N. Martin - February 2024): 90/100 “The 2014 Chasse-Spleen has a more retro nose than I remember, aniseed, tinged with red fruits, with just a touch of wild mint. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly spicy red fruits, well-balanced and ferrous towards the end with a spicy finish.”
