Domaine Xavier et Nicolas Barbet

Xavier and Nicolas Barbet are eighth generation descendants of the Jean Loron family. At the beginning of the 18th century, Jean Loron was already using the parcels in this area. In 2006, the two brothers Xavier and Nicolas bought the small family vineyard attached to the Moulin-à-Vent terroir.

The location of the vines, planted in weathered granite soil, enables the grapes to ripen easily. The Moulin-à-Vent has firm yet full-bodied tannins that bode well for this wine in the future.
