Long description

Thibault Liger Belair owns two wine estates, one family-owned in Nuit Saint Georges, Burgundy, and the other in the Beaujolais appellation of Moulin à Vent.

Domaine des Pierres Roses is a wine estate in the Beaujolais region that Thibault Liger-Belair literally fell in love with. He knows the Belleville area well, where he did part of his studies. His curiosity led him to take the plunge and try to understand a different terroir from Nuits Saint Georges. In 2009, he embarked on this wonderful adventure, gradually building up his wine estate by selecting very specific parcels. Moulin à Vent, made from very old vines, is the perfect illustration of Thibault Liger-Belair's state of mind. He strives at all costs to reproduce his "Burgundian" working methodology, while taking into account the very different notions of terroir and grape variety in Burgundy.

The Moulin à Vent Les Vieilles Vignes and Moulin à Vent La Roche cuvées are emblematic of the wine estate and highly representative of the style that Thibault Liger-Belair wanted to give his wines. The oldest vines were planted in 1910, which is extraordinary. The soil is shallow and essentially composed of sand, granite and quartz.

Winemaking is partly whole-bunch, to preserve the wine's intensity and depth. Ageing is carried out in the classic way, in oak foudres that do not mark the wine.

The first impression you get when tasting the wines from this wine estate is astonishingly different from what you'd expect! Is it a Beaujolais? The color is dark, intense and slightly garnet-red. It's a real surprise for a Beaujolais that tends to be vinified to obtain a very clear, limpid color.
