Perched in between Morgon and Fleurie, the vineyards of Chiroubles are the highest in Beaujolais at around 400 metres above sea level. The vines sit on the upper slopes and in general terms produce a Beaujolais that can be, to quote Gerald Asher, all “…lacy texture and sleek charm.” Bouland’s Chiroubles comes from a 0.65-hectare parcel of 35- to 45-year-old vines on the steep, ridged incline of Chatenay, on the typical granite and sandstone soils of the Cru. Protected by a nearby forest, it’s a warm, north-facing site, and the 2018 was raised in tank to preserve the wine’s freshness.
As a result it’s an incredibly primary, deliciously pulpy, blue-and-dark-fruited wine. It tastes so youthful—like it was drawn straight from the barrel! Expect a fleshy, ripe texture balanced by really vibrant, sappy freshness and powdery tannins.
