Varietal

Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

Decanter

So full of deeply-drawn berry fruit, fresh and juicy with touches of liquorice bud and rosemary, thirst quenching and yet thirst inducing in that amazing way that limestone can both refresh and make you thirst for more at the same time. An excellent Moulin St Georges, and such a step up from the more sandy soils that you find at Fonbel and the two Simard estates in this year's range of Vauthier-owned wines that this alone can help you understand how to navigate 2020.

Gorgeous black and blue fruits, graphite, tobacco, and violet notes emerge from the 2020 Château Moulin Saint Georges, a rich, full-bodied, beautifully balanced blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc. It's one of the standouts in the lineup, and while I'd happily drink a bottle today, it's going to benefit from just 2-4 years of bottle age and keep for two decades.

The Wine Independent

The 2020 Moulin Saint-Georges, a blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, is deep garnet-purple in color. Black raspberries, fresh blackberries, and chocolate-covered cherries jump from the glass, followed by suggestions of cedar chest, cardamom, camphor, and crushed rocks. The medium-bodied palate is so elegantly crafted, with beautifully rounded tannins and seamless freshness supporting the earth-laced black fruits, finishing long and minerally.

Vinous Media

The 2020 Moulin Saint-Georges is soft, fruity and easygoing, all of which make it a fine choice for drinking now and over the next handful of years. The blend is 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, but even so, Moulin Saint-Georges is a wine of reserve and nuance. There's terrific energy and vibrancy here. I would not be in any rush to open this. This gorgeous, under the radar Saint-Émilion is not at all showy, but it will appeal tremendously to readers who like firm, classically built wines. I can't wait to see how it ages. This is a major Sleeper.

Wine Enthusiast

This firmly structured wine with powerful tannins is set against the blackberry fruits and acidity. It is a powerful wine, full of richness and potential. Drink from 2026. (Cellar Selection)

Wine Advocate

The 2020 Moulin St Georges is more marked by its élevage than its brilliant 2019 predecessor (a wine I purchased for my own cellar). Offering up aromas of plums, cherries and spices mingled with prominent notes of coconut and vanilla pod, it's medium to full-bodied, bright and racy, reflecting its west-facing limestone terroir, concluding with a saline, somewhat oak-inflected finish that is likely to become better integrated with a bit of bottle age.
