Poujeaux 2008 is a red wine from the Moulis-en-Médoc appellation of Bordeaux, crafted by Château Poujeaux, a winery with a history dating back to the 19th century. The estate utilises its elevated gravel terraces to blend Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc, producing a wine that embodies the characteristics of a cooler growing season. With an ABV of 13%, this vintage exhibits flavours of redcurrant, cedar, and a hint of graphite. Aged for 12 months in 35% new French oak, it presents a focused structure with fine tannins, offering a refreshing finish that underscores its mineral backbone.

The 2008 Poujeaux has an appealing red berry, cedar and tobacco-scented bouquet that might just miss the delineation of its peers, but it seems to gain clarity in the glass if never slipping into fifth gear. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannin, fresh in the mouth with a cohesive and quite persistent finish that suggest it will repay another couple of years in bottle. (Tasted at BI Wine & Spirit’s annual 10-Year On tasting.)Neal Martin1st February 2018

Dark healthy crimson. Opulent ripeness on the nose. Sweetness on the front palate that is very pleasing without seeming forced, followed by thoroughly ripe tannins. Slightly tarry note on the finish – very dry finish – but much more opulent than many Margaux. (JR)
