Daniel Bouland Morgon Les Delys 2023

The lieu-dit Les Délys is part of the Corcelette climat located downslope from Bellevue and right behind Bouland’s residence and winery – it’s his back garden, if you like. Again, Bouland splits his vines into two cuvées: an old-vine cuvée raised in foudre and this younger-vine version raised in concrete. The vines were planted in 1978 and 1980 in the deep granitic sand typical of Les Délys, which brings roundness and Burgundy-like texture to the wines. Sweetly ripe yet vivacious, it is one of the more refined of Bouland’s 2023s, while the structure is a smidge firmer than the Corcelette (there’s so much juicy flavour and succulence that you hardly notice).
