Conjugating history, terroir, and aging, this tour offers the most complete immersion, during which you will appreciate 7 wines, including a vertical tasting of 2011, 2015, 2016 and 2022.
Combining history, terroir, and aging, this tour offers the most comprehensive immersion in the estate.
From the privileged viewpoint of the terrace overlooking the appellation, visitors discover the specifics of Moulin-à-Vent: its granitic soils with their characteristic expression of pink sands, the impact of the winds blowing over the AOC and the estate, and the diversity of the terroirs, with five already visible out of the 69, each with their unique environments. A dive into the history of the Château immerses them in three centuries of history, alongside the great families who have carried the estate, with their faith still intact today.
In the vat room, the focus is on the technical aspects: explanations of our methods and choices, decoding the genesis of our wines from harvest to aging, which takes place in the estate's vaulted cellar, dating back to the 16th century.
A visit to the estate's emblematic vineyard, Clos de Londres, marks the highlight of the tour. Located on the "Le Moulin-à-Vent" terroir, it offers a view of the historic mill, the icon of the appellation. It is here, on this parcel, that our most ambitious adventures began: from transitioning to organic farming to initiating massal selection and creating our first micro-cuvées, one can grasp here the essence and purpose of the estate.
Next, we offer a vertical tasting in the Chapelle des Thorins. The Château du Moulin-à-Vent cuvée, the estate's reference cuvée, is tasted across the vintages 2005, 2011, 2015 and 2022. These bottles, often rare, have been stored in the estate's private cellars, under optimal aging conditions, illustrating the aging potential of our wines. The tasting concludes with an appreciation of our single-parcel selections from the 2022 vintage: "Les Vérillats," "Champ de Cour," and "La Rochelle."
