Mathieu Paquet 2022 Moulin-a-Vent "Les Fromentaux"

Moulin-a-Vent

$27.00

A fantastic new Gamay from Beaujolais and new producer to discover Mathieu Paquet. Highly recommended. This is organic Gamay that has been worked for decades by a close friend of the Paquet family. The grapes are pressed whole cluster in an old screw press thanks to the Chateau des Vergers where the wine is made. Fermented on the skins in concrete, then rested for a short while in neutral oak, followed by bottling, which is both unfiltered and unfined, and with minimal sulfur. In 2022, the natural suntrap that is this high-elevation Fromentaux vineyard produced wine of unmistakable and singular minerality. There’s a smack of bright red cherry and framboise as soon as you lift the glass to your nose, followed by pink peppercorns and the "granitic" je ne sais quoi that only great Lantignie terroir can deliver. Come see how this single-vineyard, soil-to-glass Gamay Noir delivers both value and true cru Beaujolais character.
