Champ de Cour, Moulin-à-Vent – 2011 – 90 points, Year’s Best Red Burgundy – Wine & Spirits
90 points
“This estate owns close to eight acres in Champ de Cour, with a southeastern exposure on soils that contain more clay than other areas of Moulin-a-Vent. It is an austere wine in 2011, almost somber in the context of Beaujolais. The black, mineral-inflected tannins and firm acidity lend it structure, lifting the dark spice toward complexity. For braised meats.”
