Description
Discover the authentic charm of Château Moulin de Taffard 2018, a vibrant Bordeaux Red Blend from France’s esteemed Medoc region. Crafted by the passionate Peyruse family at Château Tour Castillon, this wine embodies tradition meets innovation in every bottle. Nestled just north of St Estephe, the vineyards hug the Gironde estuary’s banks—a prime location shared with legendary Medoc chateaux like Latour—ensuring rich terroir-driven complexity. Beneath its classic gravel soils lies a geological link to renowned Cos d’Estournel, adding depth to each sip.
What sets this wine apart is its creator: winemaker Sebastien Peyruse defies Bordeaux norms, drawing inspiration from Burgundy’s elegance and Rhône’s boldness. His hands-on approach results in a pure, intense red bursting with ripe blackberry and cassis flavors, framed by silky tannins and no harsh edges. As the exceptional second label of Tour Castillon, it offers remarkable value without compromise—proving top-tier quality doesn’t require a hefty price tag.
Perfect for lovers of approachable yet sophisticated blends, this 2018 vintage pairs beautifully with hearty dishes or savoring moments at home. With 13.5% alcohol, it balances richness and finesse—a testament to Sebastien’s rebellious yet refined craft. Whether you’re exploring Medoc wines or seeking an under-the-radar gem, Moulin de Taffard delivers family heritage and bold character at an unbeatable price.
