Moulin à Vent is called King of Beaujolais. This is the Cru with the longest cellaring potential and which is closest to its Burgundian neighbors. As it ages, it is sometimes said to “pinote”. This cuvée is the expression of the alliance between finesse and power. The aromatic palate is wide, going from very ripe small red berries through spice to mineral notes. The three different plots of vines we use for this cuvée give a wine that is full and balanced: Rochegrès give finesse, Roche Noire liveliness and fruit while La Rochelle contributes power.

History of the cuvée: in 1994 we added the Rochegrès plot to our estate, in 2002 came the one in La Rochelle, which overlooks the famous old windmill (moulin à vent in French) that gave its name to the appellation, then we started buying grapes from La Roche East facing Rochegrès gives the wine finesse and supple tannins; south-east facing La Rochelle gives the cuvée its framework with power and depth while the Roche Noire grapes contribute liveliness and fruit. The manganese-rich subsoil endows nobility on the whole resulting in an 'all round' Moulin à Vent that may be enjoyed from now for its fruity side or cellared to mature for up to 10 years.
