Château Chasse-Spleen
The Château Chasse-Spleen is an emblematic Domaine vineyard located in the Moulis-en-Médoc appellation, in the Bordeaux region. Famous for the exceptional quality of its wines, Château has a rich history and benefits from a unique terroir.
The history of Château Chasse-Spleen dates back to the 18th century, when the Foixe-Bordeaux family founded the estate. However, it was in the 19th century that Château began to make a name for itself, thanks to the Cruse family, who acquired the property in 1850. The Cruses, a family of Bordeaux merchants, invested in the vineyard and facilities, improving the quality of the wines produced by Château.

Description Château Chasse-Spleen 2017.
The 100-hectare Château Chasse Spleen is one of the most famous Domaines of Moulis-en-Médoc, a small appellation between Margaux and Saint-Julien. An exceptional Cru Bourgeois since 1932, it is appreciated for its roundness and elegance. Chasse Spleen 2017, with its very dark garnet color, has a dazzling nose of fresh fruit and spices. Notes of brioche recall the barrel ageing. On the palate, the attack is supple and expressive. Tannins delicately envelop the palate, then the tasting ends on a finish dominated by blackberry.
