Domaine AF. Gros Moulin-A-Vent En Mortperay 2018 Burgundy Red Wine

The 2018 Domaine A.F. Gros Moulin-à-Vent "En Mortperay" is a 100% Gamay that completely understood the assignment by serving major Burgundy energy. Made by a legendary Pommard family who skipped the bubblegum carbonic maceration vibes for traditional Burgundian oak aging, this Cru Beaujolais is straight-up built different. It flexes an expressive, perfumed nose of wild raspberry, dark cherry, and rose petals, backed by that signature granitic minerality and a touch of spice native to the Moulin-à-Vent terroir. On the palate, it’s medium to full-bodied with silky, melting tannins and a savory, earthy core that honestly hits different compared to your basic, early-release Gamay.
