Chateau Moulin St Georges has been referred to as a junior version of Chateau Ausone as it is owned by the same proprietors, the Vauthier family. Its 17.3 acres of vineyards are located between those of Ausone and La Gaffelière and are well-sited on a south-west facing slope, known as the Pavie slope. The vineyards are planted with Merlot , Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon . The vines are expertly cultivated by Vauthier who firmly believes that a wine's quality is first and foremost a function of the vines and the fruit they bear. Consequently, yields are kept deliberately low and the grapes exclusively hand-harvested. Winemaking takes place in temperature-controlled, stainless steel tanks and the wine is then matured in 100% new oak barriques for 15-20 months. The wines are bottled unfiltered. (12 x 75 cl)

Chateau Tour du Pas St. Georges Saint-Georges St-Emilion from France, Bordeaux, St-Emilion by Chateau Tour du Pas St. Georges Soft & Supple Reds (12 x 75 cl)
During the growing season the grapes were able to acquire a richness in sugar and polyphenols producing flavoursome totally ripe Merlot and Cabernet Franc. To enhance the fruit and richness cold pre-fermentation macerations took place as well as lengthy post-fermentation macerations that lasted about a month. This has produced a wine very dark in colour, a nose of candied black fruits and are unctuous and powerful on the palate. This wine is ideal for laying down.
