Moulin a Vent La Rochelle
This lovely red wine made from 100% Gamay in “La Rochelle” is just above “Les Thorins” in Beaujolais (France). It is a gentle south/southeast-facing amphitheater 250 meters above sea level and is in a naturally created warm microclimate sheltered from the north winds. Ripening is always even and early, creating wines with excellent structure and personality and denser than those from “Les Thorins” but bursting mineral notes and ripe cherries on the nose that leads into a very long and sensual finish with notes of granite on the palate. La Rochelle Moulin-à-Vent from Domaine des Terres Dorées calls for lamb or a good cut of beef. Available for deliveries within Metro Manila.
Grape Variety / Blend: Gamay
Winery / Estate: Domaine des Terres Dorées
“La Rochelle” is just above “Les Thorins”. It is a gentle south/southeast facing amphitheatre. Set at 250 metres above sea-level, it has created a warm microclimate, sheltered from the north wind. After it comes “Rochegrés” on top of the hill. The soil is shallower but made up of complex metamorphic granite. Ripening is always even and early. Maturing is in 20 or 30 hl. From here, we always get well-built wines with personality that are a little more dense than those from “Les Thorins” but bursting with sensuality and really long on the palate. This red wine from Beaujolais (France) calls for lamb or a good cut of beef.
