Moulin de Pillardot takes its name from an ancient windmill set among the 77 hectares that make up Château Bourdicotte. It is the estate's top cuvée - a Bordeaux Supérieur from a tiny plot of the Château's finest vines. These vines occupy one of the most elevated points in the Bordeaux region - the perfect position for wonderfully fragrant wines like this one.
Head winemaker, Jean-François Corps ferments the Merlot and Cabernet juice separately in a state-of-the-art facility and ages the wine 6 months in small oak barriques before blending. Impressive ripe red fruit and spice on the nose. Plum and vanilla flavours with hints of caramelized fruit. Impressively smooth structure with a great length. Lovely with breast of duck or pigeon, or a saddle of lamb.
