Product notes
Situated in Saône-et-Loire, 20 km south of Mâcon, this appellation covers 660 hectares surrounding Moulin-à-Vent, a classified historic site. The vines, located in the heart of the Beaujolais-Villages between Beaujeu and Villié-Morgon, are on average 35 to 50 years old, with a yield of 45 to 50 hl/ha. The soil consists of clay-limestone and sandy topsoil over a sandstone subsoil.
Production notes
Manual harvest. Traditional vinification with whole clusters, carbonic maceration for 7 to 8 days. Aged in stainless steel and cement tanks, kieselguhr filtration without fining.
