January 22, 2024 - It's definitely not my best Beaujolais, but it's definitely the friendliest and fruitiest. A full load of raspberries, strawberries and red currants and the addition of spiciness almost from start to finish in full harmony with the taste. You drink one sip and you already want to drink another one. Extremely addictive wine What else is here? Yes, it's full of minerals, both in terms of smell and taste. This makes the wine light and not overwhelming.
One word - delicious.
Drink Beaujolais, it's still affordable.
Third glass and a lot of mint and earth in the smell!
...
Long fruity finish.
2018 vintage got 93 points according to WA Vintage Guide. Outstanding. Early maturing and accessible.
How about the wine?
RP - 92

June 19, 2023 - Disregard my previous comment. I tried again, and this time I could get why others like this wine. Last time I found it a bit flat, but this time I found the length and the depth I was looking for. Tasting is not a science, I guess I was not in good mood last time...
February 5, 2023 - Kersenrood, met misschien al wat evolutie.
Trage dikke tranen.
Intense verleidelijke neus van kersen en frambozen, spat uit het glas. Mineraal. Blauw fruit en zwoele bloemen. Gebrande suiker. Echt heel mooi.
Sappig en fris, met veel kersenfruit en donkere besjes, framboos en rijpe aardbei. Heel mineraal met fijne tot strakke zuurtjes die het fruitzoet in balans houden. Ragfijne tannines aan het einde. Nagenoeg perfect evenwicht tussen alle elementen. Klein beetje lactisch
Heerlijk lange afdronk die naar nog eens slok doet verlangen.
Nog veel reserve, maar nu geweldig mooi.
(wat een verschil met vorige fles)
September 19, 2022 - I think this is a bit too young, probably needs 1 or 2 years to settle down.
April 25, 2022 - I really liked this. Good depth of fruit but what sets it apart is the freshness and acidity. Would probably improve over another year or two at least.
March 2, 2022 - Nog intens kersenrood, met beetje blauwpaarse schijn. Gekleurde tranen.
Med+ intense neus van rijpe zwarte kersen, zwarte bes, braambes, banaan; kruiden (harsig zoals tijm, rozemarijn); rijpe zoete tonen als vanille en zoethout.
Interessante aanzet vol sap met hoge aciditeit, daardoor fris en levendig, met amper aanwezige tannines.
Afdronk met veel kersen, zonder veel reliëf.
January 30, 2022 - Bouland is one of our favorite Beaujolais producers, and I doubt I could nominate a favorite cuvee as they are consistently delicious. Almost violet, medium-bodied, with savory minerality and a hint of salinity—the fruit and savoriness play off each other in this fascinating wine.
June 19, 2021 - Served to me and other family members double-blind.
On first sip, I was in the new world with this, but I quickly recognized this as solar vintage Beaujolais of high quality. Clean and fairly round, with plump fruit had everyone else in the new world, but my guess was 2018 vintage Morgon. I've not had this producer before -- I'll be on the lookout for some now. Excellent Cru Bojo.
January 3, 2021 - Toujours aussi fruité. Le vin developpe toutefois plus de complexite que la derniere fois. Une tonne de bleuet, violette, mure. Beaujolais fruité, genereux, tout en restant serieux.
December 18, 2020 - Beautiful showing. Starting to relax some. I would say wait another couple years if you can. But beautiful with air.
