The estate and the wine |
|

A benchmark in Moulis, Château Poujeaux is owned by the Cuvelier family—the same passionate team behind Clos Fourtet, the renowned Premier Grand Cru Classé of Saint-Émilion. With the same level of care, expertise, and dedication, the wines of Poujeaux now meet the highest standards.
Each vintage delivers emotion, with wines built on elegance and finesse—consistently expressive, with fresh red and black fruit flavours, and a clear, honest profile. All that, while staying remarkably well-priced.
The 2017 vintage, often overshadowed for lacking the heft of its 2015 counterpart, is in fact a hidden gem. It offers superb refinement, with lifted aromatics, juicy berry notes, and beautifully measured oak ageing. A must for anyone who values finesse over sheer power.
Still widely underrated, 2017 may just be one of the most versatile and food-friendly vintages Bordeaux has seen in decades—overlooked by critics too focused on power and concentration to catch its understated brilliance. |

Fresh and refined, with the charm of a youthful classic, the 2017 Moulis-en-Médoc Red stands out for its supple, mid-weight style—round, inviting, and wonderfully approachable. It carries real pedigree, with silky tannins and a graceful, lingering finish. A beautifully balanced wine that captures everything we love about Bordeaux at its most elegant. |
