òLa Clos de Londres’ is produced from a very specific clos of .56 hectares (1.38 acres) facing the chteau. The microclimate was identified 250 years ago by Madame Philiberte Pommier as exceptional, producing long-lived wines with distinctive characteristics. The weathered granite soils are sandy and thin, enriched by mineral nutrients within a granite bedrock with seams of manganese, copper, iron and other metallic oxides. The region’s frequently blowing winds have a positive effect on the maturity and concentration of the grapes.

A handsome, deep red color with purple tints and lovely aromas, with perfectly mature red and black fruit, bitter cocoa, hints of spice and floral notes of rose, peony and violet. Good body with fine tannins and good length. Rich, opulent and complex, finishing on a spicy note.

Located in the southernmost tip of the Burgundy region, Moulin--Vent was one of the first appellations established in 1924 and later awarded AOC status in 1936. Chteau du Moulin--Vent, named for the 300-year-old stone windmill atop the hill of Les Thorins, dates back to 1732, when it was called Chteau des Thorins.

Today, the estate encompasses 37 hectares of the appellation’s finest climats, planted to Gamay Noir averaging 40 years in age. Since 2009, under the new ownership of the Parinet family, investment in the winemaking facilities and the vineyards has resulted in plot-specific signature wines expressing the individual characteristics of each exceptional terroir.
