This wine used to come to us simply as Morgon Vieilles Vignes, without the name of the vineyard or lieu-dit (it is now labelled Morgon Les Délys Vignes plantées en 1926). It comes from a single hectare of 90-plus-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.
Frankly, it’s too cheap—in today’s market, this wine has no right to be released at this price. The nose kicks off with raspberry, crushed rock and a saline minerality, flecked with lavender and cherry blossom. The palate coats the tongue with buoyant, cool-fruited flavours of raspberry and cherry-skin, elegantly balanced by crisp acidity and finely chiselled tannins. If you can hold off, this is going to blossom in the cellar… But who are we kidding?
