RICHARD ROTTIERS CRU DE MOULIN A VENT 2019 CASE
Richard Rottiers has winemaking in his blood, but he’s not from the Beaujolais.
Originally from Chablis, he went to the vineyards of Moulin-a-Vent because he knew the potential there.
Yields in Moulin-a-Vent are always naturally low, making this the most powerful, concentrated and long-lived of the Beaujolais cru.
An older Moulin can easily be mistaken for a Pinot Noir from the Cotes de Nuits.

Richard Rottiers Beaujolais Cru Moulin à Vent 2019
Richard Rottiers has winemaking in his blood. He is is from Chablis, not from the Beaujolais. But he specifically searched out prime vines in Moulin-a-Vent because he knows the potential there. Yields in Moulin-a-Vent are always naturally low, making this the most powerful, concentrated and long-lived of the Beaujolais cru. In fact, an older Moulin can easily be mistaken for a Pinot Noir from the Cotes de Nuits. Here we have pure gamay fruits, black and mineral, with the distictive Moulin-a-Vent lingering violets, Six months in 'foudre' (large oak barrels) give the wine structure, finesse and fullness.
