    Daniel Bouland is one of the modern rockstars of Beaujolais - his wines have a feverish cult following in France, so much so that allocations bound for Australia get tighter each year.

    Most of Bouland’s offerings are technically old vine, but it’s only this and the Délys cuvée which celebrate the age of the vines on the label. This again comes from Corcelette but from vines on granitic sand soils (sable means sand). The vines were planted in 1926, so it’s truly a Vieilles Vignes cuvée. It is the sister wine, if you like, to the Cailloux (rocky) cuvée.

    “One cuvée that really doesn’t miss a beat in this more challenging vintage is the 2021 Morgon Corcelette Vieilles Vignes Sable, a medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy wine evocative of plums, sweet berries, spices and forest floor. Layered and concentrated, with an enveloping core of fruit and melting tannins, it will delight readers nostalgic for more classically proportioned Beaujolais.” William Kelley, The Wine Advocate, 94 points
