The Chapelle
des Thorins
Nestled at the heart of the vineyard, the estate holds a chapel. Historic crossroad of the Thorins village, it is located on the iconic terroir of the Moulin-à-Vent area / appellation whose name it inherited. Here, in this place steeped in history, we welcome you.
A wine tasting coffer
Located within a 300-metre radius around the chapel, the great terroirs of the appellation/ Moulin-à-Vent area are available for tasting: through the nuance and depth of our single-vineyard selection wines, we invite you to experience the terroirs of Moulin-à-Vent. Grasp the rare, one-of-a-kind opportunity, to try our more mature wines. We are convinced that time works wonders which is why we keep a portion of each of the vintages in our private cellars, as witnesses to the estate’s history and evolution. A few samples of these vintages are available at the chapel.
Our boutique
The Chapelle des Thorins is open Monday to Friday from 10am to 12:30pm and from 2pm to 6pm. There, you can taste and buy our wines as well as discover rarer vintages or larger bottles. Our bees produce honey which is also for sale.
We also offer a wine tasting. You’ll be able to appreciate our flagship cuvée, Château du Moulin-à-Vent, from the current vintage as well as the exceptional 2015 vintage. Two of our single-vineyard selection wines are also presented in the light of the terroirs from which they come.
