Château du Moulin-à-Vent Description
Terroir: Exclusively from the terroir ‘Champ de Cour’: 3,285 ha located at the bottom of the granitic mount where stands the historical windmill. 220m in altitude, this terroir is slightly sloping with deep granitic soils, rich with clay. This terroir is sheltered from the winds due to its eastern exposure.
Varietal: 100% Gamay Noir
Viticulture: Organic cultivation without official certification; natural soil amendments, manual weed control and integrated pest management; gobelet pruning and trellising
Vinification: Traditional vinification without sulphites: one pumping over per day and a punching down during fermentation to release extra juice (and get a homogeneous pumping over.) Low fermentation temperatures (max 25°C) and average whole bunch rate of 35%. Total duration is 15 to 18 days.
Tasting Notes: On the nose, this sunny vintage cuvée expresses notes of cherry and violet. On the palate, the wine is energetic and powerful, expressing the freshness of the terroir. It can sometimes seem more closed when just opened, proof of great aging potential.
