Chateau des Jacques Moulin-a-Vent Clos de Rochegrès 2017 Methuselah 6 litres
This 2017 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. It is offered here in a superb 6-litre Mathusalem bottle.
This great Moulin-à-Vent wine offers complex fruity and spicy aromas that are rich and elegant, and on the palate, an opulent and generous body balanced by a very nice freshness, supple tannins and a long finish.
It can be enjoyed today and stored until about 2035-2038. It will go perfectly with meat, fish and cheese.
