About The Wine
Jean Foillard is one of the most iconic names in modern day Beaujolais.
His unfettered expressions of the great vineyards of the region have amassed a massive cult-following, both at home and abroad. His wines are considered benchmarks of Beaujolais.
Using traditional practices, Foillard weaves a mesmerising tapestry of texture, clarity and energy through each of his creations.
The Fleurie is one of Foillard's most sought-after cuveés in his homeland, so much so that it is rarely seen in Australia.
It is a wonderful, expressive example of the vineyard: all floral top notes, finely etched tannin and the signature "Foillard minerality" that shows as a thumbprint on all his wines.
Only tiny allocations of this stunning Gamay are avilable for a limited time.
Le Clachet, Villie-Morgon
From The Importer
Following Jean's deep and powerful 2018 vintage, his 2019 wines that I tasted last year from barrel and tank are, as usual, superb. 2019 has provided wines that are at the more succulent, juicy and fresh end of the spectrum; thus quite different to the 2018 wines. Jean is one of the rare winemakers who is able to produce something captivating each vintage regardless the conditions.
2019 is a vintage full of the sumptuous fruit and silky texture that Jean is always able to harness, yet this vintage has a lighter frame emphasising vibrant jellied red fruit, very attractive floral and spice aromas and caressingly silky mouthfeel - they all offer delicious succulence as young wines, and as always they are wonderfully balanced.Blend : Gamay (100%)

Do I have to order in dozens? No, please mix it up! You can order wines in any quantity and variation you like. You can order 1 bottle or 50. We challenge you to make the ultimate mixed pack of wine!
Are there volume discounts? No, our pricing is designed to be the best in market already - no marking up and then discounting down! For very large orders (weddings, etc) we are open to negotiating though. Just give us a call.
Do we price match? Yes, within reason. Everyday low & consistent pricing is something we strongly believe in. We want our customers to feel confident they are always getting the best price. If you see a price lower somewhere else let us know and we'll consider matching it. We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.
Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.
I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.
Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.
Can I special order a wine you do not sell? If it’s doable, then we’ll make it happen. Just contact us directly via phone, chat or email and we’ll find out for you right away. Please note that in most cases special orders such as these will need to be in full case lots (6 or 12 bottles).
