Louis Boillot - Moulin A Vent Les Rouchaux 2016 (Pre-arrival)
A View from the Cellar: 94 Points
"The 2016 les Rouchaux is simply stunning in this vintage, and while it qualitatively may be at the same level of the fine 2015 fashioned from this vineyard, I prefer the 2016 version stylistically, as it is an absolute classic in the making and will clearly make old bones! The stunning nose jumps from the glass in a blend of cassis, dark berries, a touch of chicory again, a complex base of dark soil tones, woodsmoke, currant leaf and a topnote of violets. On the palate the wine is deep, pure and full-bodied, with a suave attack, a rock solid core, ripe, seamless tannins and outstanding length and grip on the perfectly balanced finish. This will age a very long time."-John Gilman
