"Tasted at Chateau Ausone, the Moulin Saint Georges 2009 has dark cherries, cassis and black plum on the nose with an intriguing honeyed scent in the background. There is a palpable exotic touch to this wine. The palate is full-bodied but with supple tannins that fan out nicely to a sensual, svelte finish. This just blossoms in the glass...once of Vauthier’s finest wines from this estate. Tasted November 2011."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
The world's largest fine-wine region, built around blends of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Divided by the Gironde estuary into the structured Left Bank and the plush, Merlot-led Right Bank, it is the historic benchmark for age-worthy claret and sweet Sauternes.
An aromatic red grape lending perfume, red fruit and a leafy, savory edge. It thrives in the Loire and as a key blending partner in Bordeaux, especially Saint-Emilion.
Produces plush, supple, fruit-forward reds with plum and chocolate notes. Softer and earlier-maturing than Cabernet, it adds flesh and roundness to blends and stars in Right Bank Bordeaux.
