Château Du Moulin-à-Vent, 'Moulin-à-Vent', 2021

Bright, Firm & Fruity Moulin-à-Vent

"This is a beautifully aged Moulin-à-Vent that shines even in a cooler vintage. A smattering of ripe red fruit wafts from your glass along with black plum, dried cranberry and red raspberry. Firm tannins lead on the attack and dissolve into well-integrated, chalk-dusted red and black fruit."

STORY BEHIND THE WINE

Château du Moulin-à-Vent may be an 18th-century property, but its sights are firmly set on Beaujolais's future. Since taking over the estate in 2009, Jean-Jacques Parinet and his son Edouard have overhauled their vineyards, converting them to organic, with biodynamic practices and focusing on improving soil health. The château has gradually reduced its use of new oak in recent years, allowing the purity of fruit to shine through.
