La Roche Moulin-à-Vent Gamay 2009

A perfect cork always makes me feel that I did my part. The nose offers up scents of mature fruit. In the mouth a nice balance of complex fruit, earth and acid. After about 75 minutes alcohol started to appear on the finish. — 5 months ago

It’s been my experience that the single lieu-dit bottles don’t age as gracefully as the VV.

Domaine des Terres Dorées (Jean-Paul Brun)

Moulin-à-Vent Gamay 2020

Dark garnet color. Aromas of earth, tobacco, dried dark cherries/raspberries, menthol, dried rose petals and violets. The palate is more dark fruit driven (black cherry/raspberry/plum) with hints of forest floor and minerals. Touch of Brett and oak on the long and tingly finish. Nicely structured with fine grained tannins. Crisp acidity and medium bodied. The tertiary notes take the lead. Gets better as it opens up. — 5 months ago

Vieilles Vignes Moulin-à-Vent Gamay 2017

Great big violets, cherries and blueberries. Has the tension of a heavier spatburgunder. Tannins are fine grained and integrated. So many flowers, lots of perfume. Happy making juice here. Not simple, depth of flavor, good balance, enough tannins to have a long finish. Good stuff. — 4 years ago

IMO, these wines are some of the most exciting coming out of Chablis right now

Great Gamay with good acidity and showing signs of red fruit, great pull from the Somm and perfect accompaniment to the French country style magret de canard. Cheers from Paris. — 8 months ago

Yvon Métras

Moulin-à-Vent Gamay 2015

Inspired by Marcel Lapierre, the wines of Yvon Métras are arguably amongst the most controversial in all of Beaujolais. It could be that some just don’t “get it”. It could also just come down to an individual’s tolerance for his wine making methods (unabashedly natural). Regardless, no one can call his wines boring. This was our first of two Métras wines in the line-up this evening. Popped and poured; no formal notes. The 2015 “Moulin-à-Vent” is comparatively dark and rustic to the wines that came before it. It’s a little funky and mousy but not out of control; certainly well within everyone’s tolerance on this occasion. Tannins are a little gritty and acid is well into the medium+ category. I felt like this bottle could probably stand to sit longer. You can drink now but best after 2025 and should drink well through 2035. — 9 months ago

9.4

Tiny hint of reduction but beyond that it is super floral and with loads of cherry fruit. Iron, very mineral. Elemental stuff. Dusty and very very refined. Hit of licorice. Really alluring nose. Just stunning. These wines give nothing in their youth and then the blossom. Stunningly fresh and vibrant with still some tannic grip but wonderful balance and depth. Saps your palate and tales of over. This is truly on its way to being great. It’s long and saline and has floral echoes on the finish. Profound. But with age, 3-6 more years, this will be lights out. — 5 years ago
