Maison Coquard - Moulin à Vent 2007
Moulin-à-Vent is the oldest, most noble, and also the king of Beaujolais wines. Refined and generous, it offers floral and fruity aromas of violet and cherry. It is also one of the only wines from the Coquard winery to benefit from 10 months of aging in oak barrels, which give it structure and aromatic complexity. With a few years of aging, it will develop complex aromas of iris, spices, ripe fruit, truffle, and more.

Rated estate (2014 guide) Selected (An estate or producer that impressed us with one or more of its wines, but about which we cannot give an overall opinion on the style of the entire range)
About the estate:
Christophe Coquard founded his own wine merchant business in 2005. He offers a range of wines covering every Beaujolais appellation, and more recently those from the neighboring Mâconnais region. The labels are beautifully decorated, and the prices remain reasonable. The house did not present its 2008 wines as we had requested, but instead offered the more highly regarded 2009 vintage. In this vintage, several crus disappointed us, but the regional appellations were bursting with fruit."
