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.

Browse through our selection of Beaujolais wines from Château des Jacques currently on sale at La Bouteille Dorée and if you are looking for a nice bottle to offer as a gift, you can find other large bottles of wine, a 3-litre bottle, a 5-litre bottle or a Methuselah or an Imperial, a 6-litre wine bottle, in our collection of large size bottles.
