VINTAGE 2008
TASTING NOTES
The personality of this wine is expressed in its colour – a beautiful deep garnet with slightly brick tints – and its generous bouquet with earthy notes and jammy, red-berried fruit. After the smooth palate with its crunchy extract, the finish brings out the spicy tannins typical of Médoc wines, this example of which appears to have attained its peak.
AGEING
To drink from 2015.

Château Les Moines 2009 is a beautifully rich wine made from perfectly ripened grapes. Its colour is a profound red with ruby and deep purple tints. Wonderfully generous nose, with notes of plum and blackcurrant as well as blackberry and a hint of tobacco. Beguilingly supple, silky palate, displaying lingering tannins and great elegance. Good ageing potential. A great Médoc, the result of an outstanding vintage.
