Description
Château Moulinet 1985 – Pomerol
A Right Bank Classic from a Legendary Vintage
From the esteemed terroir of Pomerol, the 1985 Château Moulinet offers a graceful and mature expression of what the Right Bank does best. Planted on a mix of clay and gravel soils, the vineyard is predominantly composed of Merlot, complemented by a touch of Cabernet Franc—a classic blend for the appellation.
The 1985 vintage is considered exceptional in Bordeaux, especially on the Right Bank, thanks to ideal weather conditions that led to perfectly ripened fruit. The wines from this year are known for their richness, softness, and impressive longevity.
Today, Château Moulinet 1985 displays a garnet hue with brick reflections, revealing its age. The nose is complex and layered, offering notes of stewed plum, black cherry compote, forest floor, truffle, leather, and sweet spices. On the palate, it is silky and well-rounded, with fully integrated tannins, a balanced structure, and a persistent, velvety finish.
A beautifully mature wine, perfect with elegant dishes such as roast duck breast, Tournedos Rossini, or truffled poultry. A classic, irresistible Pomerol, and a true testament to a benchmark vintage.
