Daniel Bouland
Bellevue Morgon Gamay
Classic and inviting nose. Ripe, intense tangy cherry, boatloads of stony minerality—even though this is from a sandy site I swear it’s granitic minerality. Lovely texture. Soft and enveloping, but with some barely perceptible tannin underneath the weighted sulfur blanket of fruit. Pretty good acids. Good concentration, weight, and length. Delicious now.

Sep 27th, 20202020 Daniel Bouland Bellevue Cailloux Morgon - Gamay from Beaujolais. This is a medium to full bodied wine. Bouland wines are described as defiantly deep, dark, country-style reds with plenty of grip and overflowing with personality. These are wines that are built for the long hall, unlike so many of the region’s wines. I describe this wine as brilliant and delicious. This wine is drinking nicely even without bottle age.
Once again, Beaujolais because they can be deliciously beautiful. Casualness in a bottle with a touch of class. Also can’t beat the QPR on some of these, especially this one.

Lovely cherry and strawberry nose, with a hint of vanilla and floral. And wow. Fruit forward with all the aforementioned notes, silky smooth and it just lingers on the palate. It's a summer fling in a glass, and you won't get in trouble with the spouse! Delightfully complex but oh so drinkable. Love love love
