Bouland, Daniel 2022 Morgon Corcelette "Cailloux" Vignes Vignes

The 2022 Bouland Morgon "Corcelette Cailloux Vieilles Vignes" is from approximately 70 year-old vines on stony soils over granit in Corcelette - a section of Morgon which we normally associate with lighter-bodied wines. "The 2022 Morgon “Corcelette Cailloux” Vieilles Vignes from Domaine Bouland is a fine example of the vintage, marrying ripe, deep fruit tones, fine soil inflection and a firm chassis of tannin to carry the wine many decades into the future. The bouquet wafts from the glass in a deep 
and still quite primary mix of sweet dark berries, black plums, pomegranate, pigeon, black tea, a dollop of fresh herb tones, dark soil elements and a topnote of peonies. On the palate the wine is bright, full-bodied and structured, with a rock solid core of black fruit, fine soil undertow and grip, firm tannins and a long, tangy and nascently complex finish." We suggest opening this well-structured Morgon the day before drinking or cellaring for 5 to 10 years, then enjoy until 2045.
