| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
STÉPHANE AVIRON |
| This 100% Gamay Moulin-a-Vent is the most southern of the group of ten “cru” and has some 300 producers. Fairly intense purple-red colour. Very attractive, fragrant nose that exudes ripe plums, roses, violets and an abundance of mineralty. Dry, medium bodied, nicely structured, harmonious, youthful, ripe plum, dark cherry and cassis flavours with a lingering bright finish. Ready-to-drink and great with roast chicken. Has 14.5% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L2004 on the front label. |

A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: From the 'cru' village that makes the biggest, longest lived gamays of Beaujolais, comes a quite deeply coloured youthful example. It sports ripe sweet plummy fruit, florals, licorice and hay. It is medium bodied, fairly plush and dense with some salt and pepper spice on the palate. It is warm, rich and fairy dense - certainly among the biggest - with some dusty tannin. The length is excellent. Best 2023 to 2028. Score - 91 (David Lawrason, winealign.com, 2020) |
