Daniel Bouland Description
Daniel Bouland Morgon Delys Vieilles Vignes 1926 is a stunning example of Gamay from the renowned Beaujolais region. This exceptional wine is produced by Daniel Bouland, an esteemed winemaker known for crafting old-fashioned Morgon wines that can age for up to 20 years. Sourced from less than 7 hectares of old vines in the Douby, Côte de Py, and Delys lieux of Morgon, as well as small parcels in Chiroubles and Cote de Brouilly, this sustainable wine boasts a 13% alcohol content and unparalleled depth of flavor.
The Bouland Morgon Les Delys is an enchanting wine with a deep, dark red hue and blue-black reflections. On the nose, it offers a symphony of black fruit aromas, wild blackberries, smoked bacon, and delicate woodiness. As it meets the palate, this extraordinary wine presents a smooth, full-bodied taste with flowing fruit and captivating coated tannins. Its harmonious combination of freshness and density leaves a lasting impression, making it a remarkable, complete wine that is truly a delight to savor.
The Daniel Bouland Morgon Delys Vieilles Vignes 1926 pairs beautifully with an array of dishes, enhancing the flavors of traditional crust pastries, shallot beef tab, oven-roasted veal square, grilled pork belly, and roasted farm guinea fowl. To experience its full complexity, enjoy this wine with a refined farm Saint-Nectaire cheese. Serve between 16 and 18°C to allow its captivating character to truly shine.
Wine Advocate: 92 Points
Bouland's bottling from younger vines, the 2021 Morgon Delys delivers notes of plums, wild berries, spices and forest floor, followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy palate that's still a little compact after its very recent bottling. It shows plenty of potential, however.
