What it pairs with

  • Canard rôti aux figues
    Full-bodied Moulin-à-Vent with firm tannin suits the rich, fig-glazed roast duck.
  • Entrecôte marchand de vin
    The wine's structure mirrors the red-wine butter sauce on the ribeye.
  • Comté 24 mois
    A firm, mineral Moulin-à-Vent pairs with aged Comté's crystalline salt and hazelnut.

History

Duboeuf's Moulin-à-Vent has been a consistent part of the négociant's top-tier range since the early days of the house, sourced from selected parcels on the manganese-granite soils of the appellation.
