Château Moulin Saint-Georges
Saint-Emilion
Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Estate rated (2014 guide) 3*Stars (High-quality production that can serve as a benchmark in its sector)
About the domain :
Moulin Saint-Georges is to Saint-Émilion grands crus what Ausone is to premier crus classés A, especially as it belongs to the Vauthier family. It is managed according to principles similar to those of Ausone. The terroir may not be the same, and the wine may not have the same finesse, but the overall harmony is the same in every vintage. This cru deserves better than its classification.
