Moulin-à-Vent Clos de Rochegrès, Château des Jacques

An elegant expression of Moulin-à-Vent, with elegant aromas of rose, peony and subtle minerals which carry onto the palate. In the mouth, the wine is generous and tender, with sweet, ripe, lasting tannins on the finish. Château des Jacques practices a traditional Pinot Noir vinification for its Gamay grapes, the wine is then aged in one-third each Alliers, Limousin and Nevers oak barrels for 12 months in the cellars beneath the estate’s grounds before blending and bottling.
