Chateau Chasse Spleen 2015 - 750ml

94pts James Suckling

This delivers a stylish impression from the get-go with a really nicely focused dark berry nose and hints of fresh pastry. The palate has a smooth array of bright blackberry and plum fruits with smoothly cut tannins that layer up nice and even. Classy. Best from 2022.

94pts Wine Enthusiast

The pure red-fruit flavors of this wine shoot through the firm tannins to give freshness while allowing plenty of space for the development of the tannins. It is a wine that shows both the fruit and the structure of the vintage. Barrel Sample: 92-94 Points

92pts Wine Spectator

Enticing, with a tangy iron note to the fresh red currant and bitter cherry fruit flavors, followed by a lingering sanguine edge on the pleasantly dusty finish

Winemaker Notes

Dense red Burgundy color. The wine is straightforward and clean. Aromas and flavors of vanilla, cherry, fireplace, red fruit and hints of wood. There is a silky and creaminess on the palate and the finish is persistent and contains flavors of morello cherry.
