WHAT IS JAZZ IN MOULIN-À-VENT?

Every last Saturday of May, Jazz in Moulin-à-Vent gives pride of place to music and wines of Moulin-à-Vent, on the site of Château du Moulin-à-Vent, iconic estate of the appellation

On this day, fourteen flagship estates of the Moulin-à-Vent appellation offer their wines for tasting. Visitors can thus benefit from privileged conversations with the winegrowers and discover their know-how, as well as the richness and diversity of the appellation’s terroirs.

In a minor or major way, jazz concerts accompany the whole day. In a minor way, local or regional artists play background music to the tasting. In a major way, a concert by an international jazz star ends the day.

This day, placed under the sign of sharing and conviviality allows the public to dive into the heart of the Beaujolais vignoble!
