Media Reviews
Neal Martin
The 2015 Chasse Spleen has a slightly introverted bouquet. earthy red berry fruit and dried herbs, perhaps conservative in the scheme of things. The palate is medium-bodied with a touch of chewiness on the entry, good body though needing more finesse and delineation to develop through its élevage. A stocky and somewhat saline Chasse Spleen that needs 3-4 years in bottle.
Stephen Spurrier
The fruit’s a bit tight and lean this year from this highly regarded château. Needs to open up. 88 points

Mid crimson. Not much on the nose at this point. Pretty stodgy tannins and bone dry. Seems quite heavily extracted. 16+ points
Antonio Galloni
The 2015 Chasse-Spleen is an attractive, mid-weight Moulis that will drink well upon release. Understated and supple, yet also persistent on the palate, the 2015 speaks to balance above all else. Sweet red cherry, mint, licorice and wild flowers add aromatic intrigue on the inviting, nicely layered finish. Tasted three times. 88-89 points
