The 2021 Moulin Haut-Laroque has a rather one-dimensional nose, pleasant but missing real personality. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, not a concentration Fronsac, though there is decent freshness on the finish. Solid, but lacks finesse.Inc. GSTSG$310.00 -

Wine Spectator (93)
Juicy and vivid, with lots of raspberry, cassis and blackberry fruit woven with a perfumy black tea note. There's plenty of grip on the back end, but this is lush and has melded nicely already. Score range: 90-93Inc. GSTSG$1,014.70 -
(1x75cl) 2014Vinous - Antonio Galloni (91)
The 2014 Moulin Riche is a very pretty wine from the sister estate of the Cuvelier family, who also own Leoville-Poyferre. Medium in body, with good underlying structure, the 2014 offers notable complexity and nuance. Smoke, tobacco, licorice and a host of dark-fleshed fruit notes confer a measure of gravitas. The blend is 53 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 27 % Merlot and 20 % Petit Verdot.Inc. GSTSG$195.00 -
(1x300cl) 2016Vinous - Antonio Galloni (92+)
In 2016 Moulin Riche is absolutely gorgeous. Fresh, vibrant and full of energy, the 2016 is impressive today. The wine appears to have shed some baby fat and gained in aromatic complexity over the last two years. Sweet red-toned fruit, rose petal, mint and chalk lend understatement to the classy, mid-weight Saint-Julien. The 2016 was bottled at the end of May (earlier than many other Left Bank wines) and might be entering a period of closure. Still, I find a lot to admire.Inc. GSTSG$352.42 -
(12x75cl) 2017Vinous - Antonio Galloni (91)
The 2017 Moulin Riche has really developed nicely in élevage. Smoke, spice, tobacco and new leather meld into the creamy, voluptuous finish of this engaging Saint-Julien.

(12x75cl) 2018Vinous - Antonio Galloni (92)
The 2018 Moulin Riche is a dark, sensual beauty. Blackberry, chocolate, spice, new leather and menthol all meld together effortlessly. Time in the glass brings out pretty floral overtones along with redder tonalities of fruit. This is an especially unctuous, racy style. There is no arguing with the wine's balance or sheer appeal. The 2018 can be enjoyed now and for another 15 years or so, maybe more.Inc. GSTSG$749.70 -
Vinous - Neal Martin (90)
The 2020 Moulin Riche is quite backward on the nose, dark berry fruit, black tea and brown spices gradually unfurling with aeration. The palate is rounded on the entry, lightly spiced with white pepper and touches of fennel. This gains depth in the glass as it responds to aeration with just a little chewiness towards the finish that should soften with bottle age.Inc. GSTSG$402.65 -
(6x75cl) 2021Vinous - Antonio Galloni (91-93)
The 2021 Moulin Riche is a dark, racy Saint-Julien. Black cherry, plum, spice, new leather, tobacco, menthol and licorice are all dialed up in a generous, inviting 2021 that has much to offer. There's lovely upfront intensity here. I would prefer to drink this succulent, yet mid-weight Saint-Julien over the next decade or so.Inc. GSTSG$369.95 -
Jeb Dunnuck (94)
The 2022 Château Moulin Riche is mostly Cabernet Sauvignon yet includes 25% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot. This deep purple-hued effort offers gorgeous darker currants and plum fruits intermixed with smoky tobacco, graphite, and chocolaty notes. I love its overall balance, and it's a classic, deep, rich, full-bodied 2022 with a round, layered mouthfeel, sweet tannins, and a great finish.Inc. GSTSG$408.10 -
(12x75cl) 1999Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (88-89)
Red-ruby. Sappy aromas of black- and redcurrant, cola, grilled nuts and sexy oak spices. Supple and suave, with a restrained sweetness in the middle. Actually a bit sullen today, but there ripe berry, licorice and chocolate lurking. Finishes with ripe, chocolatey tannins.Inc. GSTSG$1,055.99 -
Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (90)
Bright red-ruby. Vibrant nose offers blackberry, licorice, mint and minerals. Juicy, penetrating dark berry and crushed rock flavors lifted by violet. Pure and sweet, with firm acids and calcaire energy contributing grip and clarity. The tannins are firm but not hard. An excellent, ageworthy vintage for this Alain Vauthier property, which faces his Chateau Ausone.Inc. GSTSG$837.03 -

(12x75cl) 2010Jane Anson Inside Bordeaux (95)
Even the colour is very different from the 2009, this is the powerful, intense, a ton of chocolate, great quality, with undergrowth and spiced rosemary, with violet and peony character. Cabernet Franc is speaking with a loudest voice here. Needs carafing to really oen, these tannins are still pretty front of month.Inc. GSTSG$1,012.44 -

Wine Advocate (94+)
This property is owned and managed by the Vauthier family of Château Ausone. The 2015 Moulin Saint-Georges is blended of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, 85% new. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, it reveals a gorgeous plum preserves, licorice and blackberry pie-laced nose with touches of cedar chest, cigar box, black olives and forest floor. Medium to full-bodied, concentrated and very firmly textured with grainy tannins, it has a lively backbone supporting the generous black fruit, finishing with lingering savory notes. Give it a good 5 years or more in bottle and drink it over the next 20+ years.Inc. GSTSG$389.59 -
Wine Advocate (93+)
A blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, the deep garnet-purple colored 2016 Moulin Saint-Georges is a little closed to begin, sporting subtle notes of baked cherries, mulberries and fresh plums with touches of cedar chest, pencil shavings and bay leaves. Medium-bodied, the oak is a tad apparent at this youthful stage, lending a chewy nature to the texture yet with a great intensity of vibrant, youthful fruit to match, finishing with plenty of red fruit sparks.Inc. GSTSG$421.22 -
Decanter (94)
The alcohols are a touch higher than usual here, as at Ausone, but it retains an excellent fresh feel. This is always my wine to buy from the Vauthier lineup for the 95% of us who can't afford Ausone, and here again it is gorgeous, with the most perfect line of sight to the generous black fruits, showing sapidity and juice. 100% new oak.Inc.

(12x75cl) 2019Wine Advocate (94)
The 2019 Moulin St Georges has turned out brilliantly, offering up aromas of cherries, wild berries, violets, sweet spices and raw cocoa, followed by a medium to full-bodied, bright and vibrant palate, with a concentrated core of fruit, tangy acids and beautifully refined tannins. From a seven-hectare, west-facing vineyard opposite Ausone that always ripens some 10 days later than Ausone itself, Moulin St Georges has come into its own in this warm, dry vintage, delivering a wine of notable energy and finesse.Inc. GSTSG$658.27 -
(3x150cl) 2020Decanter (94)
So full of deeply-drawn berry fruit, fresh and juicy with touches of liquorice bud and rosemary, thirst quenching and yet thirst inducing in that amazing way that limestone can both refresh and make you thirst for more at the same time. An excellent Moulin St Georges, and such a step up from the more sandy soils that you find at Fonbel and the two Simard estates in this year's range of Vauthier-owned wines that this alone can help you understand how to navigate 2020.Inc.
