Robert Parker Wine Advocate

A fleshy, dramatic rendition of this Moulis benchmark, the 2019 Poujeaux unwinds in the glass with a deep bouquet of blackberries and plums mingled with subtle hints of cigar wrapper, loamy soil and violets. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and layered, it's deep and seamless, with succulent acids, powdery tannins and a long, expansive finish. This has turned out brilliantly and numbers among the real sleepers of the vintage.

The nose is racy and offers power, a fine deepness and a fine intensity. It reveals notes of cassis, terroir, small notes of strawberry associated with small touches of small wild fruits, violet, liquorice as well as discreet hints of nutmeg, fresh mild tobacco and sweet spices. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers freshness, a good definition, gourmandize as well as an acidulous frame, a racy minerality, a fine tension and precision. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy/ripe wild cassis, juicy/fresh small black berries, small notes of wild rapsberry associated with touches of lily, violet as well as hints of wild raspberry associated with touches of lily, violet as well as hints of tonka bean, dry almond, fresh mild tobacco and toasted hazelnut. Tannins are marked and very discreetly firm.
