Maison L'Envoye Moulin A Vent 2016

Known as the King of Beaujolais, the highly acclaimed Moulin-à-Vent Cru boasts the most full-bodied and structured wines found in the region. Grapes for the Maison L’Envoyé Moulin-à-Vent come from south facing, 60-year-old, Gobelet pruned vines in the Terre de Thé vineyard. The distinctive pink granite soil produces wine with red and black fruit characters and a lengthy, complex finish.

Powerful aromas of dark berries, licorice and potpourri are complemented by floral kirsch notes and sweet spice. The palate is generous and expansive, offering red and black berry flavors supported by a graphite minerality. The wine finishes long with succulent red fruit and fine tannins.
