The 2023 Chiroubles Chatenay opens with alluring aromas of chocolate powder, blackberry and floral violet. On the palate, tangy cherries and blueberries allot vibrancy to its medium to full-bodied frame. Powdery tannins melt smoothly, dusting the mouth, while its broad-shouldered structure remains fluid, tapering to a chalky, refined finish.
Product Description:
Daniel Bouland is a great producer of old-fashioned Morgon. From less than 7 hectares of old vines in the Douby, Côte de Py, and Delys, lieux of Morgon, plus small parcels in Chiroubles and Côte de Brouilly, he makes wines that can age 20 years, and are comparable to fine Côte de Nuits Burgundies. His Corcellette Morgon vineyard is 60-75 year old vines. De Lys, between Corcellette and Ville Morgon, was planted in 1926. In 2014 he acquired another old vines parcel, Bellevue, on a foundation of schiste and granite. All his grapes are hand-harvested and vinified with full clusters in order to extract all the organoleptic qualities. All his bottlings are unfiltered.-importer
