Region: Bordeaux, Haut-Médoc

ABV: 12%
Tasting Notes: It would be difficult to find a purer fruited wine (using older/bigger barrels and low sulphur really help) which mingle black and red fruits, with a dynamism, freshness and very digestible quality, and fine tannins on the finish.
Winemaking: Moineaux is the 2018 vintage of the usual cuvée produced in Margaux. Airy and subtly fruity (raspberry juice), it did not receive the approval of the appellation because it is considered atypical: it is consequently labeled as Vin de France. Three weeks of maceration, without oenological inputs, 16 months of aging in barrels that have seen several wines. Bottled in April 2023. Neither fined nor filtered, just a slight dose of sulphur.
