Poujeaux 2008 is a red wine from the Moulis-en-Médoc appellation of Bordeaux, crafted by Château Poujeaux, a winery with a history dating back to the 19th century. The estate utilises its elevated gravel terraces to blend Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc, producing a wine that embodies the characteristics of a cooler growing season. With an ABV of 13%, this vintage exhibits flavours of redcurrant, cedar, and a hint of graphite. Aged for 12 months in 35% new French oak, it presents a focused structure with fine tannins, offering a refreshing finish that underscores its mineral backbone.
