Neal Martin of Wine Advocate gives the 2015 vintages from Anita & André Kuhnel 90+ points for their exceptional quality:


Reine de Nuit

2015 Moulin-à-Vent Reine de Nuit-92pts

**COMING SOON**

“The 2015 Moulin A Vent Reine de Nuit comes from 5.2 hectares of 35-year-old vines and was picked during the night to maintain freshness. Matured in concrete tank, it has a ripe black cherry and iodine-scented bouquet that is focused and delineated, expresses Moulin A Vent with great gusto. The palate is medium-bodied with saturated ripe tannin, oodles of black cherry and cassis fruit with a spicy and controlled finish to urge you back for another sip. This is (yet another) great wine from the Kuhnels – a wonderful Moulin a Vent from a great vintage.”


Moulin à Vent Vieilles Vignes

2015 Moulin-à-Vent Cuvée Vieilles Vignes-92pts

“The 2015 Moulin A Vent Cuvée Vieilles Vignes, aged in cement vat, has a lovely cassis and kirsch-scented bouquet that is pure and sensual. The palate is medium-bodied with smooth, almost silky tannin, bursting with luscious red cherry and raspberry fruit laced with white pepper and Asian spices. The acidity keeps everything focused and controlled, the finish maintaining precision with impressive persistence. Very well crafted and sure to give so much drinking pleasure over several years.”
