Situated along the Dordogne River in Libourne, Establissements Jean-Pierre Moueix was founded in 1937 by Mr Jean-Pierre Moueix. It now owns or controls twelve properties, and remained specialized in the wines of particularly Pomerol and St Emilion.

Ets Jean-Pierre Moueix deals exlusively with wine importers and wholesalers, focusing on Chateau-bottled estates as well as line of top generic red wines. He is also the owner of Chateau Petrus and Grand Vin Pte Ltd is exclusive agent for Chateau Lagrange Pomerol, Chateau Certan-Marzelle, Chateau Providence, Chateau Lafleur and Chateau Hosanna, and Chateau Petrus (co-exclusivity)

Made by the owners of Chateau Lafleur, this vineyard is the home for the dynamic duo. A beautiful palate rich & elegant on the palate.

Impressive aromas of bright berry, with exotic fruit and hints of cocoa. Full-bodied, with big, velvety tannins and a long, long rich finish. It goes on and on. A good value for a Pomerol.

In March '07, de Sales offers delicate, fragrant red fruits to the nose and is relatively open. In the mouth, the wine is 'sweet' and appealing without the density of the more powerful Pomerols. The finish is long and promising. A very good Pomerol which represents true value.
- Commented by Roger Bohmrich MW. Tasted from barrel in March '07'

A dense ruby/purple color and a heady, vibrant, crunchy fruitiness (raspberries and cherries) along with spicy oak and herb notes emerge from this medium-bodied, moderately tannic 2005. Drink it over the next 12-14 years.

Excruciating tannins are cause for concern in this offering, which appears to have been made for those with 19th century tastes. Its dark ruby/plum/purple hue precedes a bouquet of forest floor, damp earth, truffles, plums, and black currants. Ripe and medium-bodied with a tannic, austere finish, this wine will require further evaluation after bottling.

It is a deep ruby-hued, medium-bodied 2005 offering an attractive, sweet bouquet of black cherry liqueur, earth, and vanilla. It is made in a medium-bodied style that is not dissimilar from Moueix’s nearby premier grand cru classe estate, Magdelaine. There is more minerality here, but this finesse-styled St.-Emilion should be at its best between 2013-2023.
