VISIT - “From Château des Thorins to Château du Moulin-à-Vent"

Château du Moulin à Vent, 4 rue des Thorins, 71570 Romanèche-Thorins
Between history and modernity, this visit immerses you in our daily life.
From the presentation of the AOC and the Château to the tasting of our wines and the technical installations, here is what you need to understand about why we are who we are !
This tour transports the curious into the daily life of the estate.
From the privileged viewpoint of the terrace overlooking the appellation, they discover the specificities of Moulin-à-Vent: its granitic soils and their characteristic expression of pink sand, the impact of the winds that blow on the AOC and the estate, or the diversity of the terroirs, of which you can already see 5 out of the 69, with their very different environments. A dive into the past of the Château immerses them in 3 centuries of history, alongside the great families who have carried the estate, with a faith still intact today.
In the winery, we focus on the technical part: explanations of our methods and our choices, we share the genesis of our wines, from the harvest to the maturation. The vaulted cellar of the domain, which dates back from the end of the 16th century, marks the final point of the visit.
The Chapelle des Thorins then opens its doors, with 4 wines available for tasting: 3 cuvées, including 2 single-vineyards from the terroirs presented at the beginning of the visit, on the current vintage, as well as a cuvée from an older vintage, in order to appreciate the "vintage effect" on our wines.
