Description
Château Moulin de la Bridane
Château Moulin de La Bridane Saint Julien AOC de Château Moulin de la Bridane is a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot. The wine has a beautiful dark red colour with some evolution in the rim that shows the maturity of the wine well. The wine has a classic Saint-Julien bouquet with charming ripe aromas of raspberries, flowers and spices.
Particularly concentrated and firm in flavour, full of aromas of blackberries and redcurrants. This Saint-Julien is beautifully balanced, mouth-filling with perfectly melted tannins and lovely notes of wood from the oak ageing.
Château Moulin de la Bridane is located in the municipality of Saint-Laurent-Médoc, fifty kilometres northwest of the city of Bordeaux. The chateau belongs to the Saint-Julien appellation. A small appellation in the Haut-Médoc on the left bank of Bordeaux, between Pauillac and Margaux, and owes its name to the village of Saint-Julien-Beychevelle. After centuries of wine-growing culture, the village became famous when rich merchants from Bordeaux bought land there in the seventeenth century and built imposing castles.
Saint-Julien is, with only 910 hectares, the smallest appellation of the Haut-Médoc communes. Almost every hectare of Saint-Julien is covered with vines and the appellation produces 11 Grand Crus Classés (Château Beychevelle, Léoville-Barton, Gruaud-Larose and Talbot, among others) that are among the most prestigious wines in the world. Saint-Julien wine is made in the commune of Saint-Julien-Beychevelle and parts of Saint-Laurent-Médoc and Cussac-Fort-Médoc. The grapes that may be used here are Cabernet-Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Carmenère, Petit Verdot and Malbec.
