93+ JG "The 2013 Morgon “Delys” from Daniel Bouland is another absolutely beautiful, single vineyard bottling from old vines, with these youngsters having been planted in 1926! The wine is more primary out of the blocks than the superb Corcelette V.V., offering up scents of cherries, pomegranate, a touch of blood orange, superb soil tones, nutskin and a topnote of violets. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and youthfully sappy at the core, with modest tannins, fine focus and grip, lovely soil signature and a very long, youthful and promising finish. Monsieur Bouland’s Corcelette V.V. is quite drinkable right out of the blocks in 2013, but the Delys really needs a few years in the cellar to blossom and allow its secondary layers of complexity to start to emerge. It is another outstanding wine in the making."
