Expert opinion
Guide des Vins Gault & Millau
Domain rated (2012 guide) 3*Stars (Very good level of production)
About the domain :
"Moulin de la Rose belongs to Guy Delon and his children. He describes himself as a lilliputian among the giants of the Médoc; it's true that the vineyard covers little more than 5 hectares. Quite ridiculous, isn't it? Cabernet Sauvignon is king here; when harvested at maturity, it brings body, power and a certain finesse to the wine. In general, all the vintages are successful, in terms of power and body, while often preserving a beautiful, elegant structure.
