Moulin-à-Vent

4.4/5 (9 avis)

"A Moulin-à-Vent of pleasure

Souple et harmonieux, ample et enveloppant, tanins fondants, finale sapide... ce Moulin-à-Vent a tout pour plaire ! Se mélange : pétale de rose, écorces d'orange, baies sauvages et concert d'épices, pour donner un bouquet expressif et complexe. À déguster avec une échine de porc grillée aux figues rôties, du gibier ou un joli Saint-marcellin affiné...

Château des Gimarets - Moulin-à-Vent Fût de Chêne 2015

"A wine that is entering its peak!

A Moulin-à-Vent that pinotes, a blend of primary, secondary and tertiary aromas, mellow, powdery tannins and a rich, complex finish - in short, a fine interpretation of this granitic arena terroir. A very fine vintage for a wine entering its apogee.

Domaine des Nugues - Moulin-à-Vent 2021

"This is a delicious Moulin-à-Vent (Vinous)".

"A firm, spicy red with a nose of blackberry, cherry, lavender and clove. It's medium- to full-bodied, polished and relatively tannic, with a solid structure." (James Suckling 2024)

Jean-Marc Lafont - Domaine de Bel-Air - Moulin-à-Vent Les Burdelines 2022

5/5 (1 avis)

"Richness, power and balance!"

"A cuvée from a terroir of just over 1 ha, where granitic sands and disintegrated manganese blend together. The vines here are around 50 years old. Jean-Marc Lafont has partially destemmed the grapes and mixed barrel and tank ageing. An undeniable success, this moulin-à-vent seduces with a nose that subtly combines raspberry, blackcurrant and floral notes, followed by richness on the palate, power, balance and silky tannins". (Le Guide Hachette 2025)

Laurent Perrachon - Moulin-à-Vent Terres Roses 2023

4.5/5 (2 avis)

"A virtuoso, delicate cuvée with aromas of red fruit, iris and wilted roses".

Moulin à Vent is often called the "Lord of the Beaujolais". It's a full-bodied wine with aromas of red fruits, flowers and spices. Its youthful expression is best appreciated now, with a little decanting before serving.

Richard Rottiers - Moulin-à-Vent Dernier Souffle 2022

"A breathtakingly lovely Moulin-à-Vent (Vinous) "

"Moulin-à-Vent Dernier Souffle 2022 is a powerful wine with aromas of stewed blackberry, kirsch, cocoa and sweet earth. It's medium- to full-bodied and classically structured, with firm, fine-grained tannins supporting the heavy concentration of velvety fruit. It's just beginning to reveal its black pepper and wet stone salinity nuances that appear on the finish. I recommend leaving this wine in the cellar for a few years to allow the elements to amalgamate." (Robert Parker 2024)

Richard Rottiers - Moulin-à-Vent 2022

"Very pleasant (Parker)"

"Moulin-à-Vent 2022 exudes rich aromas of red and black cherries, spicy plums and ground ginger. The layered, medium- to full-bodied palate features zesty notes of tangerine and white pepper, combined with well-balanced acidity and fine but robust tannins that testify to the wine's aging capacity. The wine is persistent, with remarkable symmetry throughout. Very enjoyable." (Robert Parker 2024).

Paul Janin et Fils - Moulin-à-Vent Empreinte 2022

"The creaminess and identity of the terroir".

"The nose of ripe red fruit is open and immediately appealing, but behind the first wave of fruit lies an excellent depth of fine tannins. Both aspects of the wine are very well balanced. The length is also good." (James Suckling 2024)

Paul Janin et Fils - Moulin-à-Vent Héritage 2022

"Structure and opulence thanks to the oldest vines on the estate!"

"This remarkable Moulin-a-Vent is a deep well of beautifully ripe red fruit, with terrific structure. This allows it to flow very gracefully over the palate. The finish, extremely long and precise, is wonderfully silky and marked by the intensity of old vines." (James Suckling 2024)

Paul Janin et Fils - Moulin-à-Vent Vignes du Tremblay 2022

"The wine that marks the origin of the estate".

"This fine Moulin-à-Vent combines rich, red fruit aromas, fine tannins and elegant mineral acidity [...] A very long, full finish that expands and broadens as it flows over the palate. [...] Very long, full finish that expands and broadens as it flows across the palate." (James Suckling 2024)

Château des Jacques - Moulin-à-Vent La Roche 2021

4/5 (1 avis)

"Her elegance will turn the wheels of your heart.

"Despite the difficulty of the vintage, La Roche maintains its position as a great terroir. Initially marked by the mineral imprint, one discretely discovers scents of flowers and sweet spices. The right extraction and ageing will enable it to age for at least 20 years". (Le Guide RVF 2024)

Château des Jacques - Moulin-à-Vent 2021

4.2/5 (4 avis)

"Elegant fruitiness with supple tannins and a fresh finish".

"This wine has an immediate charm of red berries and a touch of tart cherry. It's a little light and crisp for this appellation, but the tannins are well controlled and support the fruit while harmonizing the stony acidity. Very well conceived. Drink now. (James Suckling 2023)

Château des Jacques - Moulin-à-Vent Clos des Thorins 2021

4/5 (3 avis)

"Complete and refined style (RVF)"

"Oscillating between the freshness of the vintage and the warmth of its exposure, Clos des Thorins offers a complete and refined style. Hints of blue fruit, cocoa powder and fern. The palate is sleek and slender, with powdery tannins. Great ageing potential". (Le Guide RVF 2024)

Domaine Benjamin Passot Moulin-à-Vent Vierre Manins 2022

With this cuvée, Benjamin Passot magnifies the Moulin-à-Vent appellation, thanks to his parcel located on the granitic soil of the lieu-dit "Vierre Manin". A supple, well-balanced, complex wine, with a lovely length that will sublimate game birds, poultry and red meat.

Château des Jacques - Moulin-à-Vent Clos de Rochegrès 2021

4/5 (1 avis)

« Le nez de myrtille profonde vous entraîne dans ce Moulin-à-Vent 2021 remarquablement mûr et magnifiquement équilibré, qui possède tout ce que nous recherchons dans les vins de cette appellation issus d'un seul vignoble. Attaque en souplesse, puis abondance de tanins fins sur la finale longue et veloutée où l'on retrouve une certaine minéralité de pierre broyée. À boire ou à garder. » (James Suckling 2023). Opulent et généreux, mais toujours doté d'une belle fraîcheur, le Clos de Rochegrès est un des sommets de l'appellation, au propre comme au figuré.
