2019 Yohan Lardy - Moulin-a-Vent Vieilles Vignes 1903 (750ml)
Price: $36.99
Yohan Lardy is a 5th generation wine maker in Beaujolais who established his own estate in 2012. The property is located in the Cru of Moulin-a-Vent, covering approximately 7 ha. with small holdings in Chenas and Fleurie. Yohan has farmed the property organically since its inception, shunning herbicide in favor of a plow and relying on natural biodiversity rather than chemical insecticides. His wines always showcase a unique combination of joviality and depth, none more so than the Moulin-à-Vent Vieilles Vignes de 1903. This remarkable wine is hewn from a single plot of head-trained vines planted in the year 1903 within the Michelons vineyard. The wine offers a mix of ripe cherry and dark berry fruit, violet floral tones, and rich, charred, dark earth. Succulent on the palate with fine tannins and bright acidity, it will need a few years in the cellar (or a couple hours in a decanter if necessary) before it starts to really show its hand.
