St Saturnin church

Wine

Lying 15 km northwest of the Bordeaux, the village is best known as one of the six appellations of the wine-growing regions Médoc. Lacking the prestige of the 'big four' appellations of the region, Moulis and its neighbour Listrac are nonetheless home to many good vineyards, including Moulis's own Château Chasse-Spleen, Poujeaux, Biston Brillette and Moulin-à-Vent.
