We briefly met Daniel and Hélène Boulle at a tasting in early 2023.  They are genuine farmers, and we could see the soil under their fingernails. In a natural wine scene increasingly peopled by trendy hipsters, their down to earth appearance appealed to we scruffy Substratians.

And wow, what a wonderful Southern Rhône blend of old vine Grenache and Mourvèdre is here –  astonishingly fresh for a 2017 vintage.
