Visit and tasting Private visit
Available in: French,  English
Combining history, terroir and aging, this visit is the most complete incursion into the estate. From the terrace to the emblematic vineyard of the "Clos de Londres", passing through the centuries-old cellar where our wines age, discover the reasons for being and making the Château.
We then offer a vertical tasting in the Chapelle des Thorins. The Château du Moulin-à-Vent cuvée, the estate's benchmark cuvée, is tasted in the light of the 2005, 2011, 2015 and 2022 vintages. These bottles, often rare, have been kept in the estate's private cellars, in optimal aging conditions and here illustrate the aging capacity of our wines. The tasting concludes with the appreciation of our plot selections on the 2022 vintage: "Les Vérillats", "Champ de Cour" and "La Rochelle".

About the host

Reference domain since 1732, Château du Moulin-à-Vent takes place in the heart of the eponymous appellation. Nestled in the middle of the vineyards, it houses a Chapel in its heart. Located on the emblematic terroir of "Thorins" from which it inherits its name, it is the former crossroads of the hamlet, and was integrated into the property at the end of the 19th century.

What better place than this place, steeped in the history of the terroirs of the appellation, to live a unique Moulin-à-Vent experience? The 23 localities worked by the estate are within a radius of 300m around the Chapel: each of them is expressed in our plot cuvées. Available for tasting, they allow you to grasp the essence of the Moulin-à-Vent terroirs, through their nuances and depths.

La Chapelle is also a unique and rare opportunity to taste more mature wines. Convinced that time does a good job, we keep part of each harvested vintage in the cellars of the Château, witness to the history of the estate and its evolution. A few bottles of these older vintages are available at La Chapelle.

Finally, La Chapelle offers a complete immersion in the life of the estate. The visits lead the curious from the adjoining vineyards to the centuries-old cellar; Passing through the doors of the vat room, you may meet the cellar master and witness the development of our wines, enhanced by fine and delicate vinification and aging methods.
