Château Moulin De La Rose, Aop Saint-julien, Red
Château Moulin De La Rose, Aop Saint-julien, Red
The wine is made by Guy Delon, cousin of Jean Hubert Delon and ex-owner of Château Phélan Ségur. Château Moulin de la Rose is made up of many parcels of vines that touch prestigious neighbours Léoville Barton, Gruaud Larose, Beychevelle and Talbot. The result is a wonderfully balanced and elegant wine. Pure satisfaction!
The story
Chateau Moulin de la Rose is, to put it simply, a wine that is made on Grand Cru soils, by an owner who has run Grand Cru properties, from a family that has Bordeaux wine running through its veins and from a consultant wine maker who is responsible for the success of 4 of the 5 first growths. Guy Delon and his extended family own some of the most desired vineyards in Saint Julien, and use the services of consultant winemaker Eric Boissenot, perhaps the finest winemaker in the world.
