Domaine Richard Rottiers Moulin a Vent 2018
Moulin à Vent is famed for its aromatic, intense, ageworthy reds, which contrast with the lighter, easy drinking styles of other Beaujolais Crus. This is a classic, with dark fruit aromas, generous, lush black cherry fruit and a long, rich finish.
We're sorry, this wine is sold out.
