Located within the Moulis-en-Médoc appellation, Château Chasse-Spleen is a relatively large estate covering approximately 80 hectares of vineyards. In 1976 the property was acquired by Jacques Merlaut and it is currently managed by his granddaughter, Céline Villars. The 2005 vintage delivers beautiful aromas of red berries, black cherries, vanilla and cinnamon. On the palate, a round mouthfeel with plenty of sweet spices and juicy acidity, all complemented by smooth tannins.

Red-ruby. Cool aromas of blackberry and mint. Quite primary and unevolved today, with reasonably intense dark fruit flavors currently suppressed by a streak of acidity that gives the finish a dry edge. Seems a bit underripe/overripe today and is showing awkwardly.Stephen Tanzer1st May 2006
