Château Chasse-Spleen

Château Chasse-Spleen sits in Moulis-en-Médoc, a compact appellation within the Médoc that produces structured, age-worthy reds from classic Bordeaux varieties. The estate's flagship Moulis-en-Médoc blends Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, building the tannin framework and dark fruit character typical of the Left Bank. L'Héritage de Chasse-Spleen, a Haut-Médoc expression, introduces Merlot to soften the blend's edges while maintaining the mineral precision of the region. L'Oratoire de Chasse-Spleen, also from Moulis, reverses the emphasis—Merlot leads, with Petit Verdot and Cabernet Sauvignon in supporting roles. Across the range, Petit Verdot appears as a defining thread, lending structure and aging potential. The wines have been assessed by Wine Spectator, Decanter, Wine Enthusiast, and Wine Advocate, reflecting their standing within serious Bordeaux circles. Moulis remains less celebrated than Pauillac or Margaux, yet produces wines of genuine depth and complexity.
