[SOLD-OUT] Daniel Bouland Morgon Corcelette 2019

"THESE WERE ABSOLUTELY SUPERB EXPRESSIONS OF TRADITIONAL BEAUJOLAIS: SERIOUS WINES THAT I SUSPECT WILL AGE AS WELL AS THEIR MORE EXPENSIVE COUNTERPARTS FURTHER NORTH IN BURGUNDY. THEY REPRESENT OUTSTANDING VALUE IN THE CURRENT MARKET." - WINE ADVOCATE

"Surrounding the small town of Villié-Morgon, the vineyards of Morgon are divided into a seven climats: Côte de Py, Les Micouds, Javerniere, Les Grands Cras, Les Charmes, Corcelette and Douby. The majority of Daniel Bouland’s old bush vines lie within Corcelette, in the hilly Haut Morgon to the northwest of the appellation. Bouland farms a number of old-vine parcels in this terroir, where (in general) the sandy granite soils over weathered schists tend to result in wines of great perfume and finer, rounder tannins than those of the nearby Côte de Py.

This was whole-bunch fermented with indigenous yeasts and raised in very old foudre (large cask). This is a superb start to what are five stunning Morgons. Of the quintet, this is the prettiest and, in some ways, the most accessible to drink. It's packed with silky ripe plum, rose petal, geranium and blueberry fruit notes, and has a seamless structure that is incredibly seductive already. Wonderful balance and purity, this is simply gorgeous." - Bibendum
