Daniel Bouland’s Morgon Corcelette 2023 is a beautiful expression of the terroir from one of Beaujolais’ most renowned vignerons. Sourced from the sandy and granitic soils of Corcelette, this wine displays a more delicate, red-fruited, and floral profile than others from Morgon’s schist-influenced terroirs. With an average vine age of 60 years (still considered “young” by Bouland’s standards), the grapes are hand-harvested and fermented using indigenous yeasts, with whole bunches to enhance complexity. The result is a wine with vibrant aromatics, depth, and a savoury finish, offering exceptional freshness and a long, smoky, mineral finish.
A fantastic start to Bouland’s 2023 Corcelette cuvées, this wine showcases both youthful vibrancy and the concentration of a great vintage, with enough structure to cellar for 3-5 years or longer.

An exceptional wine that speaks clearly of its terroir. Bouland’s Morgon Corcelette 2023 is vibrant, with layers of red fruit, floral notes, and earthy complexity. The wine’s purity and precision make it a standout.
Daniel Bouland’s wines have become the epitome of Beaujolais craftsmanship. The 2023 Corcelette is no exception, delivering great intensity, balance, and an incredible ability to age. It’s a wine of depth and character, with fine tannins and a long, fresh finish.
Daniel Bouland is one of Beaujolais’ more elusive yet highly respected growers, known for producing wines that are rich, deep, and full of character. His style is deeply rooted in tradition, using old-school winemaking techniques with minimal intervention. Bouland works with small, gnarled, old vines, many over 60 years old, and produces his wines with an emphasis on natural, whole-bunch fermentation. His dedication to authenticity and craftsmanship has made his wines some of the most highly sought after in the region, with a growing cult following.
Bouland’s philosophy is simple: produce wines that authentically express the Beaujolais terroir while remaining true to traditional winemaking methods. His approach is centred around minimal intervention—no fining or heavy filtration, and a reliance on natural yeasts to drive fermentation. The result is a raw, pure wine that conveys the essence of the land and the true character of the Gamay grape. Bouland’s wines are crafted for longevity, often requiring years of ageing to fully develop their complexity and depth, though they can be enjoyed in their youth for their vibrancy and freshness.
The nose is expressive with aromas of red berries, including raspberry and cherry, layered with subtle floral notes of violets and a touch of savoury spice. There’s a light, aromatic complexity that hints at the purity of the vintage.
The palate is rich yet vibrant, showcasing layers of ripe red fruit, earthy spice, and a fine minerality that’s typical of the terroir. The wine has a silky texture with smooth tannins and a balanced acidity that carries the flavours seamlessly through the mouth.
The finish is long and refreshing, with a touch of smokiness and mineral depth. The bright fruit character lingers, complemented by a slight tannic grip, making this a wine that evolves beautifully with time in the glass.
