Domaine Anita Moulin-à-Vent Reine de Nuit-Aux Caves 2025

James Suckling

Undemonstratively beautiful, this has an extraordinary velvety texture and a deep well of fruits rouge aromas. Very sensual creamy texture that’s not a jot too much, the very fine tannins keeping this dry and giving it fabulous elegance at the finish. From vines in the Aux Caves vineyard site around the winery. Matured entirely in used Burgundian barrels.

Reine de Nuit kommer också från lieu-dit Aux Caves och har fått smeknamnet nattens drottning eftersom druvorna har skördats på natten. Den har imponerande koncentration och djup utan att bli tung. Den berömda järnnäven i sammets handske. Kaskader av mörk, lakritsartad, pepprig frukt med steniga tendenser väller upp ur glaset och dirigerar föreställningen från början till slut. Helt obehindrad och saftspänd, ett vibrerande energiknippe med enorm potential och en otrolig längd. Ett superköp. Poäng: 94 | Pris: 184,95 kr vid köp av 6 flaskor | Återförsäljare: Supervin

Winewherever, Rasmus Christensen

Här har de gamla vinstockarna levererat en kraftfull juice till detta vin. Den kommer galopperande med mörka mogna bär, kryddörter, salmiaklakrits och svart te. Tanninerna är kraftfulla och ger den ett ståndaktigt och långlivat uttryck. En Beaujolais utöver det vanliga.

Simply exceptional! With this “Moulin-à-Vent”, Anita Neveu brilliantly expresses all the power and elegance that Gamay is capable of when cultivated with passion. An outstanding winemaker, she embodies a new generation of women in the wine world, combining respect for traditions and creative audacity. In short, Anita Neveu is the alliance of precision and emotion, and this “Reine de nuit” vintage is the perfect reflection. On the nose, it is a real bouquet of perfumes that deploys aromas of cherry, strawberry, blueberry and wild blackberry, punctuated by floral, spicy and peppery touches. On the palate, it is an explosion of flavors. The tannins are superbly integrated, providing structure and finesse. The fruit unfolds with a gourmet intensity. We find this typical freshness of the “Moulin-à-Vent”, balanced by a charming roundness, which leads to a persistent, almost saline finish, recalling the deep roots of this wine in its exceptional terroir.

Wine Enthusiast

Picked at night to preserve the brightness of the fruit, this wine is powerfully rich, with an open structure and great freshness. It has the structure to age splendidly, densely textured and full of ripe fruits.

Robert Parker

The 2022 Moulin-à-Vent Reine de Nuit is wonderfully aromatic on the nose with notes of crunchy black fruits, lilac petals, licorice and candied peel. The wine is medium to full-bodied and rounded with a salivating core of ripe fruit, framed by a layer of slate-like salinity and wispy tannins, with impressive length and a mouthwatering, poignant finish. Refined, yet oh-so generous, this is a standout for the lineup and comes highly recommended.

Decanter

Harvested at night to preserve freshness in the grapes, this 'Queen of the Night' is all about bright violet florals tumbling and twirling from the glass. These are blended with ripe blueberries, gorgeously intense, juicy blackberries, wild strawberries, sweet violets and cinnamon twisted round red apple skin. There is a lovely grip and freshness on the finish.
