Duboeuf Moulin A Vent

Description

History and terroirIn the 19th Century, Romaneche-Thorins had four manganese minesamong the biggest in Francefrom which the famous glaziers soap was extracted and used to whiten glass. The mines used for growing vines were closed in 1919. But the manganese remained, which gives the wines their particular Moulin-a-Vent cachet.TastingAn intense colour that fluctuates between deep ruby and dark garnet. The Moulin-a-Vent reveals floral and fruity aromas dominated by violets and supported by a hint of cherry. Tannic, fleshy and subtly spicy, the Moulin-a-Vent develops complex flavours that combine finesse and harmony.We recommend to taste this wine at 15-16 C. – Georges Dubuf
