Château Mauvesin Barton - Moulis 2018

Vinous

89-91 / 100

par Neal Martin le 15/11/2019

The 2018 Mauvesin Barton was vinified parcel by parcel and is spending 14 months in barrel, one-third new. It has a perfumed, floral bouquet of vivid red and black fruit infused with subtle scents of lavender and violets. With time, there are traces of orange pith. The medium-bodied palate displays supple tannin, a velvety-smooth texture and a slightly candied finish. Very fine.

Medium-bodied with a real juiciness to the red fruits. There is a fresh, crisp jolt of red pit fruits and spice in the finish. The wine was made from a blend of 54% Merlot, 39.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6.5% Petit Vedot.

There is serious depth of fruit in the center palate. Medium to full body, firm tannins and a lovely finish. Shows brightness and minerality.

Shows gentle charm, with a kirsch and tobacco core framed by light dust and balsam hints.
