Full bodied yet supple red wine from gamay vines in the prestigious Moulin-a-Vent Cru Beaujolais zone. Old vines here are ideally suited to the harsh summer conditions and the unique pink granite soils. These wines are fermented slowly with natural yeasts, and aged in concrete vats, stainless steel tanks, and oak barrels. The final assemblage is a true ambassador for this fine Cru of Beaujolais.
