Description
Moulin A Vent, Richard Rottiers, Beaujolais, France, 2022
Grape: 100% Gamay, 40-80 year old vines, hand picked, from nine different certified organic vineyards on granite soil, partial carbonic maceration, with 6 months ageing in barrels and casks.
A small (5ha) domaine located in the town of Romaneche-Thorins. Organic since 2012.
A powerful and structured cru du Beaujolais. Violet aroma with an emphasis on the fruit. Spicy tannins rounded by the oak with well integrated tannins. Very long in the mouth.
Critics' Tasting Notes:
"Powerful and structured, it shows notes of pressed blueberries, hyacinth, guarana, lavender and magnolias. Medium body, round tannins of genuine workmanship and a truly tasty and at times savory finish. How beautiful. Drink now."
92/100 points, Raffaele Vecchione, WinesCritic.com, January 2024
"The 2022 Moulin-à-Vent exudes rich aromas of red and black cherries, spiced plums and ground ginger. The layered, medium to full-bodied palate features zesty hints of mandarins and white pepper paired with well-balanced acidity and fine but sturdy tannins that speak to the wine’s aging capacity. It is long-lasting and has a noteworthy sense of symmetry throughout the palate. Quite enjoyable." Drink 2025-2033
91/100 points, Kenna Wells, WINE ADVOCATE, May 2024
Great with chicken, grilled meat, cheese, salads.
