Chasse-Spleen 2022

Chasse-Spleen

Case Format: 6x75cl

Max score: 94.0

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.

Jane Anson

Beautifully poised and well delivered black fruits here, and this is excellent quality, unusual spices of sweet cinnamon, vanilla bean, turmeric, gourmet edging, with depth and tannic grip. Great stuff, flashes of heat, but a ton of personality, and serious architecture that promises to age well. 40% new oak barrels for ageing. Now contains part of the vines from newly-purchased Château Brillette, with good quality Cabernet Sauvignon from gravel terroir, in place as of this 2022 blend vitage.

Cool and crisp, a little sombre at first, the dense tannins and liquorice, blue fruit and soft herbal aspects at the fore but there is juiciness here, good depth and lovely precision where you feel the edges to the frame and the quality of the tannins, even though theyre full and mouthcoting. Nice potential with cool freshness. Calm and confident, still with enough acidity to keep the life and energy, but a touch more serious than some others. Lots to like here and will age well. Yield of 34hl/ha. Harvest 17 September - 6 October. 2% Cabernet Franc completes the blend.
