Moulin-à-Vent 2022 Clos du Grand Carquelin - Château des Jacques
Beautiful Beaujolais estate
94/100 JS
PRESENTATION OF THE CUVÉE
- Characteristics: A few meters from the windmill and La Roche, slightly more south-facing, Clos du Grand Carquelin asserts itself in a very different style. Here again, granitic sands predominate but are a little more clayey and deep (60cm).
- Vinification : Hand picked in small boxes, sorted and often destemmed, the grapes macerate slowly for three to four weeks. The fermentation is punctuated by punching down or pumping over, depending on the nature of the vintage.
- Aging and bottling: The wines are aged for 10 months in one, two and new oak barrels in our old 17th century cellar. The wood comes from the forests of the Nivernais, the Limousin and the Allier.
- Tasting / Food pairing : Particularly complex, the "Carquelin" is a fine and delicate wine. Charming, it is particularly lively in the glass. It accompanies all delicate dishes.
- Conservation : Two to three years are necessary for this wine to start to deliver itself. Its potential life is several decades.
