Since the 1980s, Chasse-Spleen, from the Moulis appellation, has always been a reliable wine full of character that never overshoots the mark in terms of price. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Chasse-Spleen is so popular and has a loyal following in Germany.

The Chasse-Spleen is a wonderfully classic representative of Bordeaux, which will please connoisseurs with its depth and red fruitiness.

The blend consists of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40 Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot.

The color is a sparkling, deep Bordeaux red. Roasted notes, vanilla and some cherry on the nose. After a little aeration, wonderful aromas of red fruits emerge. The Merlot provides the fullness, while the Cabernet Sauvignon is responsible for the finesse and silky touch. The tannins present bring a nice balance to the equation. The finish is long and intense.

The Chasse-Spleen is an excellent accompaniment to game, roasts, pasta or mature cheese.

Château Chasse-Spleen

Chasse-Spleen ist unzweifelhaft, neben Châuteau Poujeaux, der Star der Appellation Moulis. Auf 80 ha wird hier vorwiegend feinster Cabernet Sauvignon angebaut, etwa 20 % Merlot und etwas Petit Verdot und Sauvignon Blanc; die Reben sind zwischen 30 und 40 Jahre alt.

Der Name Chasse-Spleen bedeutet in etwa "die Sorgen loswerden" oder "die Sorgen vertreiben", wobei sich die Weingelehrten darüber streiten, ob der englische Dichter Lord Byron oder der Franzose Charles Baudelaire für die unfreiwillige Namensgebung verantwortlich sind.

Das Gut hatte eine wechselvolle Geschichte, aufgrund seines im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes herausragenden Terroirs auf dem höchsten Punkt der Kiessandkuppe des Weilers Le Grand-Poujeaux, gehörte es sogar schon zu Château Latour. Claire Villars hat seit dem Jahr 1992 die Leitung von Chasse-Spleen übernommen und versteht es meisterhaft, die Tradition des Bordelais und die Gegenwart zu vereinen. So unprätentiös wie Claire Villars selbst, die mehrere namhafte Güter in Bordeaux leitet, ist auch ihr Wein.

Chasse-Spleen ist inzwischen eine über Jahre hinweg verlässliche Konstante im Bordeaux-Universum geworden und besticht durch seine Frucht, ideale Einbindung der Tannine und bietet regelmäßig, obschon "nur" ein Cru Bourgeois, den Grand Crus die Stirn. Und dies zu einem Preis, der nur einen Bruchteil des Preises der klassifizierten Gewächse beträgt.

Château Malescasse Haut-Médoc Cru Bourgeois AOP 2022

Château Malescasse is a reflection of this exceptional vintage. Malescasse, owned by Philippe Austruy since 2012, has been on an admirable upward trajectory ever since. The dedication and investments that have benefited Malescasse have now been rewarded with its classification as a Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel in 2020.The wine is a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot. This red wine impresses with deep, dark hues and violet highlights. On the nose, it offers notes of black cherry, blackberry, caramel, and a hint of mint. Overall, it offers plenty of intensity, abundant fruit, and a creaminess and sweetness that nonetheless do not lack complexity. So, this is no “fruit compote,” but rather a lush bouquet, balanced by fine tannins and a very long finish.This charmer still has a long life ahead of it and will benefit from being allowed to rest a while until it has fully developed in the bottle. This should be the case around 2025. However, those who simply can’t wait should decant the Château Malescasse at least 1–1½ hours in advance.Due to its intensity, this is a wine that’s particularly impressive on its own. But it also pairs wonderfully with game, goulash, or pasta.

Château Malescot St. Exupéry 2018

Malescot St. Exupéry, das den zweiten Teil seines Namens vom Urgroßvater des Autors vom kleinen Prinzen verdankt, arbeitet aber eher im stillen und nicht so werbewirksam wie einige andere Châteaus. Ähnlich sind die Weine des Gutes, aber von einer unglaublichen Tiefe und Reinheit.Wir lassen André Kunz (Bxtotal) mit seinen Eindrücken von der Fassprobe zu Wort kommen: "Frisches, seidenes, komplexes Bouquet, Erdbeeren, Himbeergelee, Heidelbeeren, Schiefer, Minze. Eleganter, dichtverwobener Gaumen mit samtener, fein muskulöser Struktur, kräftiger, frischer Frucht, vielfältiger Aromatik, langer, duftiger Abgang".Ein "outstanding" Margaux aus einem jetzt schon legendären Jahrgang.James Suckling: 97/100 Punkte; Robert Parker: 95/100 Punkte; André Kunz: 18/20 Punkte.

Hensel Höhenflug Grauer Burgunder

The wines from the Höhenflug line produced by the Hensel estate wonderfully reflect the great diversity and the dedicated commitment of Thomas Hensel to coaxing the best out of his grapes. Due to the controlled ageing in wooden casks, the wines have a special elegance and complexity.The classic Höhenflug Grauburgunder (Pinot Gris) is the best evidence of this. On the nose, it offers fine barrique aromas such as notes of vanilla, hazelnuts and toast, complemented by spicy nuances of overripe pears, honeydew melon and hints of pepper. It is incredibly complex and powerful but supple on the palate. Despite its heft, the Höhenflug Grauburgunder (Pinot Gris) from the Palatinate never loses its freshness and balance. The long-lasting finish is accompanied by hints of lemon.Enjoy the Höhenflug Grauburgunder (Pinot Gris) with salads dressed with vinegar and oil or light grilled dishes.

Le Marquis de Calon Ségur 2021

Der Merlot-Anteil dieses Weins ist höher als beim Grand Vin (53% und 47% Cabernet Sauvignon), so dass der Marquis früher trinkreif sein dürfte, jedoch immer noch zu den Langstreckenläufern aus dieser Appellation gehört. 17 Monate Fassausbau in 30% Neuholz machen diesen Wein zu einem hedonistischen Erlebnis, wie Robert Parker es formuliert.Die Farbe ist ein tiefes Purpur-Schwarz, in der Nase Kräuter, Pflaume, Minze, Creme de Cassis, Kirsche, Himbeere und Sandelholz. Am Gaumen volumenreich, von vollem Körper und ganz viel schwarze Früchte. Der Abgang ist kräftig und lang anhaltend.Robert Parker: 92-94/100 Punkte; Jeb Dunnuck: 95/100 Punkte

After gentle pressing and first fermentation, the sparkling wine matured on the lees for five to six years before being disgorged, which allowed its fine, creamy structure and harmonious complexity to develop.In the glass, it is a bright salmon pink, perfectly reflecting the ripe raspberry and strawberry aromas as well as the subtle spiciness of the Pinot Noir. On the palate, the fruity berry fruit and the creamy richness of the Chardonnay combine to create a harmonious taste experience, accompanied by a persistent, fine mousse. Delicate honeysuckle notes and light spicy aromas round off the bouquet and make this Cap Classique a versatile pleasure.This Graham Beck Methode Cap Classique (MCC) Pinot Noir Rosé is an excellent accompaniment to light starters, fresh salads or fruity desserts. The recommended drinking temperature is 6-8 °C.
