This Gamay resembles a Pinot Noir, giving a nice dimension that is more Burgundian in style and goes far beyond a simple Beaujolais. The 2014 vintage is in line with what I have enjoyed in this wine before. Those who are impatient will benefit from its delicious youth and the purists that don’t mind putting it in the cellar for a few years will enjoy a magnificent aromatic bouquet that is sure to develop in time.
Château du Moulin-à-Vent is located in the heart of the prestigious Moulin-à-Vent appellation, where it was constructed in 1732, taking its name from an old wind-mill that overlooks the valley. Since 2009, and its purchase by Jean-Jacques Parinet, the estate truly has wind in its sails! New energy, viticultural practices and a brand new perspective. Onwards!

Eye Wine with a ruby color in shades ranging from purple to mauve on the side of the glass.
Nose On the nose, the wine is delicate and slightly toasted, with notes of morello cherries, strawberries, marshmallow and licorice stick after aeration.
Mouth Supple and fruity at first sight, with tannins that still youthful and structured. Ready to enjoy today.
