The wine region of Moulin-à-Vent
Beaujolais cru nicknamed "the lord", the most structured, age-worthy reds of the 10 crus. Signature Gamay noir: deep ruby robe with signature notes of black cherry, plum, violet, iris, sweet spices and a mineral iron touch, firm tannins and a dense palate — close to Burgundian Pinot Noir with age (5-15 years). Terroir: friable pink granite arenas ("gore") and manganese veins, signing intensity. ~670 ha.
The wine region of Beaujolais
Kingdom of Gamay (98% of the vineyard): fruity, accessible reds with signature notes of cherry, raspberry, banana (carbonic maceration), violet and sweet spices, supple tannins and juicy acidity. From festive Beaujolais Nouveau (3rd Thursday of November) to the 10 more structured, age-worthy Crus: deep earthy Morgon, sturdy Moulin-à-Vent, floral Fleurie, crunchy Brouilly. Some lively Chardonnay. 12,000 ha south of Burgundy, granitic soils.
The word of the wine: Phenolic ripeness
A distinction is made between the ripeness of sugars and acids and the ripeness of tannins and other compounds such as anthocyanins and tannins, which will bring structure and colour. Grapes can be measured at 13° potential without having reached this phenolic maturity. Vinified at this stage, they will give hard, astringent wines, without charm.
