Château Moulin Caresse - Montravel Magie d'Automne 2020 (sec)

4/5 (1 review)

"Close your eyes and enjoy!

"Last year of organic conversion for this vintage, fermented and aged in 300L oak barrels, where Sauvignon reigns supreme. The wood is hardly noticeable in this wine, which seduces with its assertive minerality, with accents of gunflint. A tonality in harmony with a pleasant liveliness, which will work wonders with seafood, many cheeses or even a good blanquette de veau". (Le Guide Hachette 2023)

4/5 (3 reviews)

"A real treat!

"A fine star for this blend of Merlot (45%), Malbec (30%) and Cabernet Franc. After twelve months in oak, it boasts a dense, dark color and reveals an elegant nose, blending well-mixed breeding notes with floral nuances and a hint of undergrowth. Not to be outdone, the palate is structured, full-bodied and fresh at the same time, supported by pleasant tannins and good acidity, woody without excess, showing real power for the vintage and the appellation". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins)

Château Moulin Caresse - Montravel Cent Pour 100 2017

4/5 (1 review)

"A must-see

"Luckily for the estate, the Merlot (50%), Cabernet Franc (30%) and Malbec that make up this cuvée, aged 18 months in barrels, were little affected by the frost. Fans of this renowned cuvée will therefore find a successor to the 2016, the superb Favorite of the previous edition. While it lacks the substance and potential of its predecessor, it is appreciated for its finesse and aromatic expression, between morello cherry and well-fused roasted wood. Fresh and fragrant on the palate, it reveals mellow, vanilla-flavored tannins that are a little lively and austere on the finish". (Guide Hachette). The power of the Southwest!

Château Moulin Caresse - Haut-Montravel Cent Pour 100 2016 (liquoreux - 50 cl)

3.8/5 (6 reviews)

"A stunning 2016 from start to finish: a seductive golden yellow color, an intense and complex nose of candied fruit, dried fruit, hazelnut and vanilla; a rich and suave palate but never heavy, a fine freshness coming in support and bringing length and dynamism. A tasty wine for a long time to come". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins)

Château Moulin Caresse - Périgord Les Frangins Flingueurs 2019

3.4/5 (20 reviews)

"Benjamin and Quentin, the "Frangins flingueurs", have hit the bull's-eye with this Périgord red, which breaks away from the house "canon" by focusing solely on Cabernet Sauvignon. "Brutal"? As the label, which echoes the cult film, suggests? Yes, if you mean color, power and density. In the glass, we also find ripe fruit and a hint of spice. On the palate, red fruit galore, cherry, plum and sweetness. Made for immediate consumption, this jaja could be kept". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2022)

Château Moulin Caresse - Cent Pour 100 rouge 2015 (magnum)

"Beautiful dark color with purplish highlights. Engaging nose, finely toasted, spicy, blackcurrant, plum, woody background. Supple attack, structured palate, dense, full-bodied, shy, vegetal presence still dissociated, a fine construction to be left to refine quietly." (Le Guide des Vins 2017 - Gilbert & Gaillard)

Château Moulin Caresse - Cent Pour 100 blanc 2016 (sec)

2.7/5 (3 reviews)

This Montavel white is a fine, racy wine with a floral character. The palate is round, supple and fat, with the mineral freshness of the terroir, finely spiced, with good length and surprising freshness. 100% immediate pleasure!

Château Moulin Caresse - Magie d'Automne 2012 (Moelleux)

From a plateau of south-facing boulbènes on ferruginous clay, this light-yellow moelleux has a fine, elegant nose, with hints of pear, quince and white flowers. An unctuous white that retains good freshness, rich on the palate without being syrupy, with nuances of white fruit and apricot... A lovely treat!

Château Moulin Caresse - Magie d'Automne 2011 (Moelleux)

4/5 (1 review)

This Haut-Montravel is immediately fine and elegant, offering beautiful nuances of pear, quince and white flowers. A smooth, mellow white that retains a good freshness, rich on the palate without being syrupy, with white fruits and apricot. A very elegant treat!

Notes : RVF 15,5/20, Bettane & Desseauve 15,5/20, Gault Millau 14/20
"Pulpy tannins on a background of black fruits, a taut, elegant structure, this wine is harmonious". (Le Guide Bettane & Desseauve des Vins de France 2013). A lovely structure on the palate with ripe, coated tannins, to be savored now!
