Jean Etienne Chermette - Moulin-à-Vent - Rochegrès - Rouge - 2021

Wine:

The 2021 red Moulin-à-Vent Rochegrès brilliantly plays on the freshness and finesse of this half-power vintage, which suits it so well. Juicy cherry and red berry fruit punctuate a fine, slender, easily digestible structure, in a light, airy style that's immediately appealing. A real success that's hard to get enough of.
