This comes from a single hectare of 100-year-old vines located on the Morgon-Chiroubles border at the end of the Corcelette valley—a terroir historically known as Délys. The old, gnarled vines sit on a southeast-facing slope, planted at 10,000 vines per hectare. As always, this is likely to be Bouland’s most age-worthy wine, and it is something special in 2024. It’s a superb Délys, dense and silken, underpinned by graphite-like minerality and magic length. Already a wonderful drink, but, as always, the tannins are the most tightly wound, the steeliest, reminding us that this is a wine that will have no problem living and developing for decades. Bouland admits that if he could find the grafting materials he needs, he would start to replant this ancient parcel—it yields too little juice for his liking. Just as well he can’t: this is a reference Morgon and one of the greatest single-vineyard wines in all of Beaujolais. - Bibendum Wine
