Balance & Spicy

Moulin-à-Vent "Vieilles Vignes" - Domaine de Gry-Sablon

Red wine | Moulin-à-Vent AC

Very dashing old vines!
Of the ten Beaujolais Crus, Moulin-à-Vent is often considered the most tannic and full-bodied. The depth of this wine from (very) old vines is balanced by the typically Beaujolais vinification in whole clusters, which brings fruit and lightness. A beautiful harmony for your taste buds!
