About the Wine
A welcome return of this dizzying blend from Patrick and Justine. It’s the lightest we’ve had from this cuvée, but it’s just as warm and aromatic. Chillable, easy-drinking, and still very complex.
The grapes that go into Môl are an 'all-in' blend of the entire harvest at his home, Domaine la Bohème, as well as a bit of everything he has bought to make his négociant wines from other parts of France.
Opening a bottle of Bouju is always an occasion and if you've followed this shapeshifting wine over the years. A wine we always feel punches well above its weight in terms of price. Always surprising, always a banger. One for the curious minds.
About Patrick Bouju & Justine Loiseau
Patrick started making wine in 2004 with 1.5 hectares of vines which has now increased to around 5 hectares. The soil in Patrick's vineyards is heavily basaltic thanks to the chain of extinct volcanoes, the Puy de Dôme at its heart, which form the backbone of the region. Patrick's vineyards are mainly planted with old Gamay d'Auvergne (a smaller berried, thicker skinned variety than its Beaujolais cousin), a little Chardonnay and some Pinot Noir. We also recommend taking a look at his Sous le Végétal wines, an altogether more Greek collaboration with Jason Ligas.
