The Château Moulin à Vent in Moulis en Médoc is an organic winery with 22 hectares of vineyards north of Margaux on the best terroir suitable for producing high-quality Médoc AOP wines.

Unique in the Médoc, the team is 100% feminine: Queen, the Technical Manager, Florence the Administrative Manager and Pilar Jimenez, Winemaker working for the Château Moulin à Vent with a maternal focus.

The vineyard of this property has more than two centuries of existence, its chartreuse dates from the early nineteenth century and its winery was built in 1873.

The terroir is a concentrate of the Médoc wine: gravel Garonne and serious Pyrenean rest on a clay-limestone substrate, promoting a long and consistent maturation of Merlots and Cabernets Francs. This arrangement favors the expression of powerful, elegant and racy organic wines.
