The Famille Chermette estate has been a family-run winegrowing business since the 17th century, located in Saint-Vérand., in the Golden Stone area, South of Beaujolais in Rhone.
Jean-Etienne Chermette joined the domaine in 2017 and took over from Martine and Pierre-Marie Chermette in February 2023. Passionate about his work, he is fully committed to producing top-quality wines: white, rosé and red Beaujolais, crus such as Brouilly, Fleurie, Saint-Amour, Morgon and Moulin à Vent, Crémants de Bourgogne and traditional fruit creams.
Moulin à Vent is called King of Beaujolais. This is the Cru with the longest cellaring potential and which is closest to its Burgundian neighours. As it ages, it is sometimes said to “pinote”. This cuvée is the expression of the alliance between finesse and power. The aromatic palate is wide, going from very ripe small red berries through spice to mineral notes. The three different plots of vines we use for this cuvée give a wine that is full and balanced: Rochegrès give finesse, Roche Noire liveliness and fruit while La Rochelle contributes power.

Moulin-à-Vent undergoes a portion of barrique aging (15%), which gives you some idea of this Cru’s intense personality. Expect mineral-infused cherry skin and fresh earth sustained by supple tannins and lots of juicy, smoky grip on the finish.
