Chasse-Spleen 2009

Chasse-Spleen

Case Format: 12x75cl

Max score: 92.0

With a name that translates as “chase away the blues”, Château Chasse-Spleen delivers big promises, and its breath-taking wine certainly does not disappoint. Typically dark coloured and full-bodied, Chasse-Spleen includes a lavish concoction of plump black fruits, piquant minerality and occasional dashes of chocolate. This alchemic combination of flavours is the result of a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (c.65%), Merlot (c.30%) and Petit Verdot (c.5%) which is matured in 40% new oak barrels for 18 months before being bottled unfiltered. One of the leading estates in Moulis, Chasse-Spleen have continued to create noteworthy wines that grow from strength to strength.

Beautiful blueberry, black raspberry and cassis fruit as well as incense and graphite jump from the glass of this inky ruby/purple-colored wine. Ripe, medium to full-bodied, dense and rich, this is one of the stars of Moulis in 2009. Given its low acidity but abundant tannin, I suspect it could close down in a few years and last two decades.

Bright crimson. Lovely aromas – rich, sweet-fruited and spicy. Firm, upright tannins filled out by just the right amount of flesh and balanced by an overall freshness. (JH)
