The 2017 Moulin Haut-Laroque offers a floral bouquet, rose petal scents infusing the wild strawberry and crushed raspberry aromas, a little vanilla emerging later on. The palate is medium-bodied with plush tannin, good depth if just missing some tension towards the finish. It starts well but just loses a bit of quality towards the finish.

The 2017 Haut-Laroque has a clean and fresh bouquet with perfumed blackberry and bilberry scents, a pleasant mineralité tucked in just underneath. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, quite light in style for a Fronsac but well balanced with a soft, easy-going but clean finish that suggests it will drink well for four or five years.

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 Moulin Haut-Laroque opens with blackberry preserves and black plums notions with hints of Sichuan pepper and yeast extract. The palate is medium-bodied with a well-sustained mid-palate and nicely balanced frame, finishing on a savory note. Rating: 87-89 Lisa Perrotti-Brown, RobertParker.com (Apr 2018)
Lots of spice, graphite, and assorted red and black fruits define the 2017 Château Moulin Haut Laroque. It’s medium-bodied, has nicely integrated acidity, and solid mid-palate depth, which isn’t a given in the vintage. It should benefit from a year or two in bottle and keep through 2027.
