Mee's newest parcel, only .7 ha of 46 year old vines at relatively high altitude on sandy soils. Moulin-à-Vent is primed for a vin de garde style, and she threads the needle with precision and care. 
 
Lighter in color than the Morgon's, with brighter acidity and violet and tart plum high toned notes to go with the blackberry and blueberry fruit. There is some a stony minerality with graphite, licorice, stones, wet earth and a very medicinal finish.
 
Tannins are just sexy, finer than the Morgon's, but more rounded from the sandy soils, like velvet across your tongue. Accessible now and easiest drinking along with the Grand Cras, but I still recommend giving it a good dose of air, if not a couple years in the cellar.

"The 2023 Moulin-à-Vent Deschanes comes from a 0.7-hectare parcel on sandy soils, located close to but at a higher altitude than Au Michelon. It has an open, transparent bouquet with airy red fruit tones. The palate is slightly chalky in texture with a touch of pure, tart red cherry fruit, light grip and a bright, crunchy finish. Drink this over the next five or six years." —Neal Martin
