Albert Bichot’s skill in the Cote d’Or is clearly on display here, and Rochegrès’ Moulin-à-Vent is up there with the best from appellation, invariably showing finesse and purity, with excellent fruit concentration and focus.
What the critics say:
"A very dense purple, almost opaque. Rich and punchy, might this be overdone? The palate says no. Super-succulent but more in a vivid red fruit than black, good grains of tannins, a little point of acidity and fine length. Stays with you. Drink from 2026-2030. Tasted: October 2023. ****."
"Semi-carbonic maceration combined with 100% destemmed fruit. Beaujolais crus are coming into their own, according to technical director Matthieu Mangenot. 80-year-old Gamay vines on granite rock – extraordinary-looking apparently! 50% is aged for 8 months in 350-litre barrels (20% new). Bottled 7 September 2023. Notably high alcohol, at just over 14%. Polished, serious. Really complete and refreshing for quite long ageing. Still quite firm tannins on the end."
