TASTING
The wine reveals a brilliant ruby color, a distinguished bouquet of flowers (peony, wilted rose), fresh black fruits (blackberries, cherries) and spices (white pepper). The palate is complex, intense and refined, with an airy "sweet" fruitiness and a long, silky finish. The terroir and the Gamay variety used give 'La Salomine' a very Burgundian style, both powerful and elegant, racy, with great cellaring potential.
Information
We're in southern Burgundy, in the Beaujolais region, and Moulin à Vent is considered the most "Burgundian" of the region's 10 crus, no doubt because of its ageing potential. Total surface area of the Appellation: 620 hectares in the villages of Romanèche-Thorins and Chénas. Our estate includes 0.6 ha of 'Salomine' on the heights of Chénas, on the municipal boundary with Fleurie and Climat 'Poncié'. On this high, south-facing hillside (400 m), the very shallow, sandy pink granite soils rest on the hard quartz granite ridge. The vineyard was planted in 1912 by Marc BURRIER (1873-1915), with a fine, small-grained Gamay variety, rarely used in modern Beaujolais.
