The Producer

Critics recognize Daniel Bouland as one of Beaujolais's major and most consistent talents. All the grapes are harvested by hand on steep slopes where mechanical equipment cannot operate. His wines can age 20 years.
Place
The domaine's vineyards span Morgon, Chiroubles and Côte de Brouilly. Morgon contains the main holdings, including Douby, Côte de Py and Delys, while the smaller parcels extend into the two other Beaujolais crus.
This spread puts named vineyard places at the centre of the domaine's work. Delys was planted in 1926, giving one of the Morgon parcels a century of vine history.
