2020 Famille Guerin Moulin-à-vent “La Vigne de mon Père”, Beaujolais, FranceABOUT THIS WINE From the climats of 'Les Bois Marchaux,' 'Les Burdins,' and 'La Coudrire' on eastern and northern exposures in Moulin Vent. Semi carbonic maceration of whole clusters is followed by 9 months of concrete aging. The wine is delicious now with dark fruit and floral notes, but will age for several more years. ABOUT THIS PRODUCER Elisa Gurin delivers a fresh new vision for Moulin Vent and a reminder of how noble a grape Gamay can be. Elisa

On average

His Mae's Vineyard block slopes southeast into the Applegate Valley in what can only be said as one the prettiest spots we've seen in the state

we took over the responsibility to follow the steps and evolve what he made

hence why the Hungarian influence remains strong

favorable weather in August provided optimal conditions for fruit development and maturation

The grapes are allowed to steep for 7 days before a gentle pressing into well seasoned French barriques where the wines mature for about 11 months

Refreshing winds circulate though vine rows that my father planted in his soils in 1972

The wines are not subjected to filtering or fining

at first incredulous and skeptical but then convinced and conquered

made from the first growth vineyards of Mézes Mály

Spontaneous fermentations

transmitting a clear and unique Bugey identity
