    Producer

    The Château du Moulin-à-Vent vineyard stretches across hillsides with optimal sun exposure, promoting the ripening of the grapes. The soils, primarily granite, are rich in minerals, lending a unique complexity to the wines. The region's temperate climate, with hot summers and mild winters, allows for a slow and balanced maturation of the grapes. The vines, some several decades old, are meticulously tended, allowing the wines to express the very best of this exceptional terroir. Each harvest is carried out by hand, guaranteeing the quality and selection of the grapes.

    Owner and history

    Château du Moulin-à-Vent is currently run by a family passionate about wine, who have preserved the estate's heritage while infusing it with a modern vision. Their commitment to sustainable and responsible viticulture is at the heart of their philosophy. They pay meticulous attention to every stage of production, from vine to bottle, to guarantee high-quality wines. Their passion for the terroir and their respect for tradition make Château du Moulin-à-Vent a key player in Beaujolais, recognized by both wine lovers and professionals.

    Vinification and aging

    The winemaking process at Château du Moulin-à-Vent respects tradition while incorporating modern techniques. After careful hand-harvesting, the grapes are destemmed and then fermented in concrete vats, allowing for better temperature control and gentle aroma extraction. Aging takes place in stainless steel tanks and large oak casks, promoting harmonious maturation without masking the fruit. This process preserves the integrity of the Gamay grape while adding further complexity to the wine. Each step is carefully considered to enhance the terroir and offer an authentic and generous wine.
