Château des Jacques Moulin-a-Vent Clos de Rochegrès 2021
This 2021 Moulin-à-Vent is a great Beaujolais wine from Château des Jacques and comes from the sole Clos de Rochegrès terroir, on the heights of the appellation, with shallow pink granite soils but more clayey than around the Moulin à Vent and crossed by many quartz veins.
This Clos de Rochegrès 2021 brings a wide aromatic palette, opulent and generous, perfectly balanced by a beautiful freshness. One of the summits of the appellation, literally and figuratively!
After a difficult winter and spring, the sunny month of June allowed a beautiful flowering. The beginning of summer was wet until perfect dry and hot conditions in August which allowed a good ripening of the Gamay grapes. Thanks to intense efforts in the management of the vines, a very rigorous sorting of the grapes and a gentle extraction, this Moulin-à-Vent 2021 is very successful.
It can be enjoyed today and stored until about 2045-2050, or even much longer. Vintages such as 2009, 2005, 1999, 1985 and 1976 can be enjoyed wonderfully today. It will go perfectly with meat, fish and cheese. .
