Score 87/100 · Drink 2014-2017, Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, Jun 2014
The 2012 Moulin-a-Vent comes from 55-year-old vines. It has a more composure and complexity on the nose compared to the 2012 Morgon. The palate is medium-bodied with fresh acidity, lithe tannins and a fine, harmonious tart cherry finish. Drink now-2017. . The Fessy family have been based in Brouilly since 1888 and over the decades have bought parcels of vine. Today, this domaine oversees around 70 hectares of vineyard, including Brouilly, Moulin-a-Vent, Fleurie and Regnie. They have plenty of old vine material at their disposal, which goes some way to explaining why their wines achieve a respectable quality level for the price.
