Description
94 points Wine Advocate
"Aromas of blackberries, warm spices, rose petals and sweet soil tones introduce Rottiers's 2020 Moulin-à-Vent Les Thorins, a medium to full-bodied, seamless and complete wine that's deep and layered. Its concentrated core of fruit is framed by powdery tannins and lively acids. Concluding with a saline finish, it's a terrific rendition of this cuvée."

"From a vineyard next to the 15th-century windmill, this wine is well textured, with delicious black fruits. Ripe tannins and wood-aging flavors give smoothness as well as aging potential."
93 points Vinous
"The 2020 Moulin-à-Vent Les Thorins is Rottier’s second vintage from this vineyard, raised entirely in used oak for nine months. Taken from barrel, it has a clean, precise, classic Moulin-à-Vent bouquet that unfurls in the glass. The palate is well-balanced with filigreed tannins and fine acidity. Pure and focused, with a finely structured finish that suggests it should age well over several years."
