Best in Show
You’d expect a Moulin-à-Vent to be very different to this year’s Beaujolais Best In Show from Morgon; indeed it is. It’s not quite as dark in colour, and is far less fruit-dominated on the nose. The fruits it shows, too, suggest plum and damson rather than cherry, and there are other more brooding aromatic notes on the nose as well, intimating the wines granite-sand origins; you might, finally, find a meatiness there. On the palate, this is as intense as the Morgon but, once again, more complex and layered, with fruit, stone and other savoury notes. The acidity, though, is admirably juicy, and the tannins remain palpable and shaping though soft. This is a serious cru wine which wears its authority lightly.
