"Bordeaux Blends from around the World."
This is a long standing favourite of mine and I was not disappointed. Medium garnet colour. Lovely nose, earthy, with cinnamon, peppermint and floral overtones. The palate is smooth, nicely matured already. Long and well balanced, with good acidity. Excellent. (2351 views) | | | Tasted by Legian on 12/14/2022 & rated 90 points: On the nose, it's charming and light with aromas of red and dark berries, light spicy notes of tobacco leaves and cedar. fresh on the mouth, with soft fine tannins and a medium- aftertaste.

No formal notes, on a night with a number of different wines. I remember a nice leathery note on the nose and it being a nicely integrated wine. (5422 views) | | | Tasted by meineche on 4/5/2021 & rated 91 points: Need at least 3-5 years more to mature (4523 views) | | | Tasted by macaujames on 6/6/2020 & rated 92 points: Trade tasting: This was impressive. Not sure about the list price of 39 Euros. My first Angludet. It had nice aromas of beeswax, plums, cedar hints, flowers, raspberries + cassis. Its medium bodied spherical, nicely opulent, silky and nicely oaked, fresh blue and red fruits palate has a plump middle and ends longish, fresh and a bit dry. Elegant wine. 13%. V.drinkable! Drink in next 5 years+. (5840 views) | | | Tasted by Andre Brattland on 11/28/2019 & rated 92 points: 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Merlot and 12% Petit Verdot. 13.5% alcohol.
Fresher and charming aromas with darker cherries, red plums, raspberry hints, dark mushrooms and light wet wool. Medium bodied wine with pronounced fresh and good mouthfeel. Clean cherries, fruit peel, slightly wide red plum, some orange-edged and salts. Light wood on the finish. Fresh acidity and good tannin structure. Lacks some depth, but this is a wine that will drink very well a little earlier. 92 points. (5794 views) | | | Tasted by PSPatrick on 6/22/2017 & rated 87 points: Barrel sample. The wine was medium to dark purple in colour and offered red and dark fruit, oak, vanilla and coconut on the nose and palate, with medium to medium-plus acidity, medium-plus tannin and good length. The wine was pretty, but not the densest and probably even the least concentrated in today's lineup, and the oak was more dominant than in many other wines. This sample was medium- to light-bodied and I expect the wine to be medium-bodied once bottled and released. Not bad, but this would not be my first choice in 2016. (9857 views) | | | Tasted by Jeff Leve on 4/29/2017 & rated 89 points: Medium-bodied with firm tannins, this wine opens with notes of blackberry, cassis and cherry pipe tobacco. You’ll also find that same sensation on the palate, when the cherry tobacco reappears with a pinch of herbs. (4515 views) |

Their second label is Moulin d'AngludetRed Bordeaux BlendRed Bordeaux is generally made from a blend of grapes. Permitted grapes are Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Malbec and rarely Carménère.Today Carménère is rarely used, with Château Clerc Milon, a fifth growth Bordeaux, being one of the few to still retain Carménère vines. As of July 2019, Bordeaux wineries authorized the use of four new red grapes to combat temperature increases in Bordeaux. These newly approved grapes are Marselan, Touriga Nacional, Castets, and Arinarnoa.
Wineries all over the world aspire to making wines in a Bordeaux style. In 1988, a group of American vintners formed The Meritage Association to identify wines made in this way. Although most Meritage wines come from California, there are members of the Meritage Association in 18 states and five other countries, including Argentina, Australia, Canada, Israel, and Mexico.France Vins de France (Office National Interprofessionnel des Vins ) | Pages Vins, Directory of French Winegrowers | French Wine (Wikipedia)

History of Bordeaux
History of 1855 Bordeaux Classification
"2009 is all about ripeness, with wines impressively packed with ripe fruit and high alcohol levels. They are showy, in-your-face, and full of pleasure. The 2010s have the fruit and alcohol levels of the 2009s, but with a compelling freshness on the finish that balances the fruit and provides a perfect sense of structure." - Ben Nelson
"2016 is a landmark vintage in certain spots of Bordeaux and it should be remembered as one of the most inspired campaigns of the last 40-50+ years." -Jon Rimmerman
"The quality of red Bordeaux in 2016 was universally lauded – although the response to the en primeur campaign was muted. Quantity was high too, with the equivalent of 770 million bottles of wine produced. An exceptionally dry summer with cool nights eventually, thanks to mid September rain, resulted in small, thick-skinned, ripe grapes, and the wines are marked by high tannin and acidity, with superb aromatic fragrance." - Jancis Robinson
"2017 was complicated, but there are some excellent wines. Expect plenty of freshness and drinkability from wines that will offer excellent value, and others that will rival 2016 in terms of ripeness and ageability. But they are likely to be the exception not the rule, making careful selection key." - Jane Anson
"In the past, a vintage such as 2022 may have been overripe, raisined and low in acidity but 2022 had a sneaky little reservoir in its back pocket - a near perfect marriage of cool/cold/rain the previous winter and the previous vintage that literally soaked the soils (a key to why 2022 is not 2003...or 1893)." - Jon RimmermanMédoc Vins du Médoc (Conseil des Vins du Médoc) - Read More about the Medoc

The eight precisely defined appellations of the whole of the Médoc (from Blanquefort Brook to the north of the Bordeaux built-up area, almost to the Pointe de Grave) may claim the Médoc appellation. But there is also a specific territory in the north of the peninsula which produces exclusively wines with this appellation. In the great majority, the Médocs come from the north of the peninsula. The great individuality of this region is that the number of vines has increased more recently here than elsewhere, apart from a few isolated spots where vines have grown for many years. Today, the size of the small estate has brought about the development of a powerful co-operative movement. Four co-operatives out of five belong to the group called Unimédoc which ensures aging, bottling and marketing a large proportion of their wines.Margaux Read more about Margaux and its wines As with a large part of the Bordeaux vineyards, vines first appeared in Margaux during the Gallo-Roman period.
In 1705 a text mentions Château Margaux . But we have to wait for the end of the eighteenth century and the coming of the earliest techniques in aging for the concept of wines of high quality to develop. The confirmation of this was the famous 1855 classification which recognized 21 Crus Classés in the Margaux appellation. One hundred years later, the Viticultural Federation and the Margaux appellation of controlled origin were born. The appellation, which stretches out over five communes, is actually unique in the Médoc in that it is the only one to contain all the range of wines, as rich as they are vast, from First Great Cru Classé to the Fifths, not forgetting its famous Crus Bourgeois and its Crus Artisans.
In Margaux there is a predominance of Garonne gravel on a central plateau of about 4 miles in length and one and a quarter wide. To the east-south-east, it overlooks the low lying land by the estuary. Its east side is marked by gentle, dry valleys and a succession of ridges.The layer of gravel in Margaux was spread out by a former Garonne in the early Quaternary. Rather large in size, it is mingled with shingle of average dimension and represents the finest ensemble of Günz gravel in the Haut-Médoc. It is on this ancient layer on a Tertiary terrace of limestone or clayey marl that the best Médoc crus lie. All the conditions for successful wine are present : a large amount of gravel and pebbles, poor soil which cannot retain water and deep rooted vines.
It is customary to say that Margaux wines are the "most feminine" in the Médoc, thus stressing their delicacy, suppleness and their fruity, elegant aromas. This does not affect their great propensity for aging; just the opposite, for the relatively thin terroir imparts tannins which give them long life. The other characteristic of these wines which combine an elegant vitality, subtlety and consistency, is their diversity and personality. Over and above the flavour which is their "common denominator", they present an exceptional palette of bouquets, fruity flavours which show up differently from one château to another.
Production conditions (Decree dated August 10 1954)
In order to have the right to the Margaux appellation of controlled origin, red wines must:
- come from the commune of Margaux, Cantenac, Soussans, Arsac and Labarde, "excluding the land which by the nature of its soil or because of its situation, is unfit to produce wine of this appellation".
- satisfy precise production conditions: grape-varieties (Cabernet-Sauvignon, Cabernet-Franc, Carmenère, Merlot Noir, Petit Verdot, Cot or Malbec), minimum of sugar (178 grammes - 6.27 oz. - per litre of must) degree (an acquired 10°5) base yield (45 hectolitres per hectare).
