Delas Hermitage Domaine Des Tourettes
Grape: Syrah
Tasting Notes: Blackberry, Spice. Leather, Cedar
The celebrated Delas Frères wine company was founded back in 1835. Delas Frères was acquired by Champagne Deutz in 1977. Its highly motivated team is proud to play its part in the revival of the quality of this venerable Rhône Valley wine company. A specially designed vat-house for the vinification of red wines, as well as a full restructuring of the aging cellars, are among the new quality measures at Delas, all aimed at perpetuating and enhancing the expression of the terroir.
This Northern Rhone gem is firm but silky, balanced, and complex with velvety yet well-structured tannins, good acidity, and terrific purity. The succulent palate provides black currant, blackberry, dark plum,, pepper, and leather flavors as well as delicate notes of toasted nut, smoke, and cedar. Pairs well with red meats, venison, or spicy stews. The bottles should be opened 1 to 3 hours before drinking.
