Domaine Louis Latour Moulin-à-Vent – Moulin-à-Vent – Red – 2023:

 

The Lord of Beaujolais: Louis Latour’s Structured Cru

Louis Latour’s Moulin-à-Vent is the undisputed ‘Lord of Beaujolais.’ As one of the region’s most powerful Crus, this red wine is produced with Burgundian precision to fully express the complexity of its manganese-rich granite soils. It offers a profile that is both elegant and age-worthy, making it a fantastic, affordable alternative to premium Côte de Nuits Pinot Noir. This is a wine built for savoring, not just sipping.

Tasting Notes

• Color: Deep, intense garnet.
• Nose: Complex and inviting, revealing primary aromas of bright red berries (raspberry, black cherry) layered with elegant hints of nutmeg and licorice.
• Palate: Silky and well-structured, featuring fine, integrated tannins that provide a balanced, long finish. Expect persistent flavors of concentrated fruit and a touch of mocha.

Pairing & Serving Suggestions

Serve slightly chilled, between 55°F and 59°F (13°C-15°C). This is a versatile, powerful food wine.

• Pairings: Hearty grilled meats, herb-crusted roasts, and mature, flavorful cheeses.
• Cellaring: Enjoy now for its fruit, or cellar for 5-7+ years to develop tertiary notes of truffle and forest floor.
