Domaine Daniel Bouland - Morgon - Delys - Rouge - 2021

Wine:

With extraordinary depth, the 2021 red Morgon Les Delys draws superb stature and concentration from its old 1926 vines planted on sandy soils. And what aromas! Between cherry and rose, the nose is sheer pleasure. The palate is already in place, with all the ripe silkiness of Gamay, unfurling a precise, particularly delicious juice, a sapid, slender texture carried by prominent, precise tannins. This is the aristocracy of Morgon, the pinnacle of the vintage. A Selection Committee Favorite rated 95/100.

Vinification:

Hand harvested from a one-hectare vineyard planted in 1978, 1985 and 1986; very traditional vinification, aged in oak tuns.

Color:

Deep, dark red with good intensity.

Nose:

Very pleasant, carried by the scents of roses and cherries.

Palate:

Delicious and precise with full-bodied fruity flavors, let yourself be charmed by this wine with its extraordinary depth, sapid structure and prominent tannins!
