The wine region of Moulin-à-Vent

Moulin-a-Vent is arguably the most remarkable of the ten Beaujolais crus, located in the far North of the Beaujolais region. Moulin-a-Vent wines, made from the Gamay Grape, are known to be among the most concentrated and Tannic of the Beaujolais, a far cry from the light and simple wines of Beaujolais Nouveau. Floral">floral and Fruity in their youth, these wines often develop Spicy and earthy characteristics as they age. The Moulin-a-Vent Vineyards stretch across the Rhône and Saône et Loire departments, on the west bank of the Saône.


The wine region of Beaujolais

Beaujolais is an important wine region in eastern France, famous for its vibrant, Fruity red wines made from Gamay. It is located immediately South of Burgundy, of which it is sometimes considered a Part, although it is in the administrative region of Rhône. The extensive plantings of Gamay in this region make Beaujolais one of the few regions in the world that is so concentrated on a single Grape variety. Pinot Noir is used in small quantities in red and rosé wines, but in the name of regional identity, it is being phased out and will only be allowed until the 2015 harvest.
