Tasting Notes

Aged in new and used barrels, the 2022 Moulin-à-Vent Clos de Rochegrès has rich aromas of tart red and black cherries, spiced plums, white acacia blossoms and sweet cedar tones. On the medium to full-bodied palate, the cherry-fruited core intermingles with flavors of candied orange peel and figs, with a trace of wet-stone salinity. It's rich but contrasted with bright acids and dainty chalky tannins that help to maintain a pliant, shapely mouthfeel.

Mid blueish ruby in colour, the nose is sweet and ripe with strawberry and blueberry fruit. The palate has a real crunch of tannin, setting against the ripe fruit core. Waves of silky acids keep everything fresh but allow the fruit to shine. There is a moreish sappiness to the fruit, which builds to prominence on the finish, making for a moreish and deceptively approachable wine.
