Cru Beaujolais is no longer a secret among wine lovers. For about a decade now names like Lapierre, Foillard and Metras have been among the most sought after by collectors and everyday wine drinkers alike. We have long believed that the wines of Daniel Bouland were deserving of the same attention and devotion, and in the last couple of years that has become a reality.

Bouland's wines come from very old vines and seem to operate on three well-delineated layers: An airy top register of flowers and flint-smoke, the middle layer flush with refined (and sometimes powerful) red fruits, and precise, vividly mineral structures at the low register. It's this near- visualizable depth and detail that sets them apart. Bouland would probably make a great photographer.

The wines can age. Ten years is not asking too much. But most also drink wonderfully on release - especially the Chiroubles, Melanie, and Corcelette. They have brains and brawn. And, most importantly, beauty.

Robert Parker

"Revisited from my own cellar, the 2018 Morgon Les Delys Vieilles Vignes de 1926 is open and demonstrative, bursting with aromas of ripe blackberries and cherries, with only hints of the savory nuances to come with age. Full-bodied, ample and enveloping, it's fleshy and textural, with a deep and layered core, ripe but lively acids and velvety tannins. Right now—indeed, more so than a year ago—the wine is dominated by its youthfully primary puppy fat, but I continue to feel that its fruit-driven profile is deceptive and that it will really reward more bottle age."
