The 2020 Domaine Labruyère Moulin-à-Vent Champ de Cour is a refined and expressive Gamay from one of the most respected single vineyards in the Moulin-à-Vent appellation. Produced by Domaine Labruyère, this wine highlights the elegance and structure that have made Moulin-à-Vent the most age-worthy of Beaujolais’ crus. The nose is fragrant and complex, offering aromas of red cherry, blackberry and violet, complemented by subtle spice, earth and mineral notes.
On the palate, it is beautifully balanced, combining vibrant fruit with fine tannins and fresh acidity. Layers of red and dark berry flavours are supported by a silky texture and underlying mineral tension, leading to a long, poised and savoury finish. The 2020 vintage delivers both immediate appeal and excellent cellaring potential.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic choice for customers looking to discover the more serious side of Beaujolais. Elegant yet structured, it drinks beautifully now with decanting but will reward patience over the next 8–12 years. Ideal with roast duck, pork, lamb, mushroom dishes or classic French bistro fare.
