ABOUT THIS WINE
This vintage of Clos de la Roilette’s owner Alain Coudert (Domaine Coudert) Moulin-à-Vent is crafted from Gamay vines grown on granite-rich soils in one of Beaujolais' most age-worthy crus. Known for its fuller body and aging potential, Moulin-à-Vent often yields Gamay with a more substantial structure and depth than other Beaujolais crus. The 2023 vintage highlights Clos de la Roilette’s signature style: a blend of finesse and power, with fruit-forward character and a nuanced mineral undertone.
ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
Clos de la Roilette, under the stewardship of the Coudert family, has been producing wines since the 1920s and is celebrated for its high-quality, terroir-driven Beaujolais. The estate’s vineyards in Fleurie, on the edge of Moulin-à-Vent, benefit from ideal sun exposure and old vines, which contribute to the depth and complexity of their wines. With a philosophy rooted in tradition, Clos de la Roilette is known for its expressive, age-worthy Gamay, which captures the essence of Beaujolais while embracing a style often likened to Burgundy.
