Château Moya

93% Merlot , 7% Cabernet Sauvignon

 

It complements roasted meats such as pork tenderloin, herb-crusted chicken, or duck with cherry glaze beautifully, and works equally well with hearty vegetarian fare like lentil stew, mushroom tart, or grilled eggplant with herbs. Château Moya also pairs nicely with aged cheeses like Gruyère, Comté, or a firm goat cheese, enhancing its earthy and fruity layers.

On the nose, the wooden, toasted, and spicy notes stand out. Ripe red fruit notes are present. On the palate, it has a frank, very round onset with a beautiful evolution towards acidity. The red fruits are present throughout the tasting and the tannins are well blended and round. An elegant and smooth wine.

Château Moya is a certified organic estate located in the Castillon Cotes de Bordeaux appellation, next to Saint Émilion in Bordeaux, France. The 20-acre property is located on a clay-limestone hill some 230 feet above the valley floor with a stunning 360-degree panoramic view. Its pristine vineyards are tended to by the same team managing Château Gâby, and between 30,000-40,000 bottles are produced annually since the first vintage in 2009.
