Moulin Saint Georges 2017

Tasted blind. Mid ruby colour. Powerful aromatics. Cedar, savoury spices and ripe red fruit. The palate is refined, with fairly silky tannins and charming, cool red fruit. Slick. A little bite from more austere tannin and acids on the back end, but this retains good balance through to a cool, lightly spiced finish.
Drink 2023 – 2038

Extremely perfumed and beautiful with cherries and flowers. Hints of light chocolate. Medium to full body, firm tannins and a tangy, acidity-driven finish. Lots of tension. Exciting. Drink after 2022.

The 2017 Moulin St Georges is medium garnet-purple in color with lovely notes of red currants, black cherries, black raspberries and allspice with touches of roses and garrigue. Medium-bodied with a solid backbone of grainy tannins and wonderful freshness, it finishes long.

This has a bounce to the tannins, and again the austerity of the vintage is evident. There's no over ripeness to the fruit but there are attractive layers of soft damson and textured gooseberry and redcurrant fruits, with floral aromatics lifting everything up. 100% new oak with a low and light toast. 20% of the crop was lost to frost, with no second generation fruit used, so this vintage will see 19,000 bottles instead of a more normal 25,000.
Drinking Window 2023 - 2035

Deep cherry red. Spicy, lively blackcurrant fruit on the nose. Lots of sweet fruit and sweet oak on the palate. Juicy fruit in the middle. Bright and lively. Just a little too sweet-tasting for refreshment (hence the minus). Tannins a touch chewy but not at all tough.
Drink 2022-2028

Fresh mainly red fruits the nose is light the start of the palate bright a slight lack of mid sweetness. It does fill out at the back with the fresh fruits dominating the finish. 2023-29

There is a very deep and pure nose here of purple fruit and the oak element remains calmly in the background. The palate is quite sharp and mouth-watering with acid underpinning the fruit and while lengthening the wine it also adds an air of severity to the whole. Oak is present on the finish and it comes in with spice as opposed to woody notes. This is a calm, long, tense wine which will age slowly and evenly.
