Merlot, Moulin de la Lagune 2010

75cl - 14% - 2010

Since 1999, the quality at La Lagune has improved in leaps and bounds. The Frey family (who also recently acquired Paul Jaboulet & Aine in the Rhone including the famed Hermitage La Chapelle) have a habit of changing the fortunes of floundering wineries with excellent terroir by focusing on the inherent quality present and investing in the winery and vineyard. A new cuverie was built in 2004 and since then, the fruit has expressed itself with an intensity and class that belies its third Cru Classe status.The second wine of Chateau La Lagune. From vine to bottling this wien is treated in exactly the same way as the Chateau La lagune. The Moulin is made from young vines with about 40% to create a supple, easy to drink claret for early drinking.
