Dominique Piron - Moulin-à-Vent Vieilles Vignes 2015
94/100
Wine Enthusiast
Very well crafted, Moulin-à-Vent Vieilles Vignes distills a beautiful expression of Gamay. Floral aromas (iris, rose) blend with spicy notes. The palate is structured, with delicate tannins, resulting in a complex wine with great roundness...You won't be disappointed!

About the estate:
A leading figure in Beaujolais in general and Morgon in particular, Dominique Piron, now joined by his partner Julien Révillon, has developed a solid range of Beaujolais wines. Seven crus are represented across more than 100 hectares, with a logical majority of Morgons. With a refined style and expressive noses, while retaining the stylistic signature of their origin, the estate's wines are all successful.

About the estate:
Heir to 14 generations of winegrowers, Dominique Piron handed over the reins of the family estate to Julien Revillon, his partner since 2013, in 2020. Revillon now manages around 50 hectares, divided between his own vineyards and grapes purchased for the wine merchant side of the business.

Rated estate (2024 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing good-quality wines; you won't be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
Julien Revillon, assisted by his talented oenologist Pierre Meunier, continues Dominique Piron's work with consistency and panache. The duo is assisted by vineyard manager Thibaud Lemaître, who is essential for overseeing an estate covering 90 hectares. Their joint efforts have improved the quality of the grapes, and the selective vineyard management they have implemented is beginning to bear fruit. We are impressed by the consistency of the range and its cornerstones: spontaneous fruit, sweetness, and the precise definition of each vintage.

Note and opinion by Mr. FABIEN Q. Published on 10/22/2017
17/10 - Well made (structure, acidity/freshness, complexity - moderately extracted), perhaps a little young to be fully appreciated.
