Maison Delas Frères

Delas Frères - Condrieu Clos Boucher Sélection Parcellaire 2022

"A concentrated and finely nuanced Condrieu".

"Complex nose of very ripe peaches, coconut and tropical flowers. Rich and silky with excellent concentration. Medium- to full-bodied on the palate, very finely nuanced. Creamy midpalate, then silky on the very long finish. Aged in Burgundian oak barrels for a year, then six months on stainless steel lees." (James Suckling 2024)

Delas Frères - Hermitage Domaine des Tourettes rouge 2021

5/5 (1 review)

"A Hermitage with natural class".

"Very complex nose with notes of candied orange, cocoa powder and spices. Remarkably harmonious for the vintage, with almost silky tannins, followed by an intense flinty character that gives the slightly sweet finish so much excitement. Aged entirely in oak barrels, a quarter of which are new, but only for 12 months. Enjoy or keep. (James Suckling 2023)

Delas Frères - Côtes-du-Rhône Saint-Esprit blanc 2023

"Perfect for an aperitif.

"Lots of candied lemons, white peaches and fresh almonds. The medium-bodied, very harmonious palate is lively and brilliant, less creamy than many wines of this appellation, but refreshing and very well balanced on the finish. A blend of Grenache blanc with Viognier, Roussanne, Marsanne and Clairette. Drink now. (James Suckling 2024)

Delas Frères - Côtes-du-Rhône Saint-Esprit rouge 2022

3.9/5 (9 reviews)

"A lively Côtes-du-Rhône".

"A serious Côtes-du-Rhône. Full of forest fruits with delicate notes of spice, bitter chocolate and licorice. The full-bodied palate has impressive depth and real structure. I love the way the generous, rather fine tannins carry the long, spicy, fresh finish." (James Suckling 2024)

Delas Frères - IGP Pays d'Oc Viognier 2023

4/5 (1 review)

"The "gourmand and cheerful" cuvée of the estate!"

With its exotic fruit, peach-apricot and candied citrus aromas, its subtle hints of dried fruit and its freshness on the palate, this Viognier is immediately seductive. A wine to drink with friends as an aperitif or with fish-based starters... A sure bet from Maison Delas!

Delas Frères - Crozes-Hermitage Les Launes rouge 2022

"A Crozes-Hermitage that's far too seductive!

"An elegant, medium-bodied Crozes-Hermitage with the fleshiness and firmness expected of this appellation. A certain stony minerality on the moderately dry finish. A pure Syrah with only 12.5% alcohol. To drink or to keep. (James Suckling 2024)

Delas Frères - Crozes-Hermitage Les Launes blanc 2022

4.5/5 (2 reviews)

"Little flowers in a bottle

Les Launes white has a floral profile, evoking hawthorn, verbena and lime blossom, with exotic touches of mango, lychee and citrus. Fresh and fruity on the palate, this pleasantly supple white is perfect with grilled fish.

Delas Frères - Muscat de Beaumes de Venise La Pastourelle blanc 2020

Cuvée Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise "La Pastourelle" from Maison Delas Frères is a beautiful pale gold color. Intense fruity and floral aromas develop on the nose. This wine will surprise you with its freshness, generosity without excessive heaviness, and persistent fruity aromas, with a slightly lemony finish. Gourmet finesse!

Delas Frères - Hermitage Domaine des Tourettes blanc 2021

On the nose, Hermitage blanc "Domaine des Tourettes" is marked by floral notes and a perfume of candied citrus fruits, complemented by a fine woodiness. All its power is expressed in a concentrated, opulent palate, with a perfectly balanced structure. This Hermitage has a pleasant freshness and minerality that carries the aromas through to a long, savory finish. A fatal beauty.

Delas Frères - Cornas Chante-Perdrix 2020

4/5 (1 review)

"A fine terroir wine

"Powerful, concentrated, deep nose of black fruits (blackberry, blackcurrant). On the palate, the tannins are well coated, this powerful wine already tastes very well, a style of wine all in finesse for the appellation." (Le Guide Bettane + Desseauve 2023) It reveals a fine structure and a full-bodied profile characteristic of its terroir of origin.

Delas Frères - Gigondas Les Reinages 2018

4/5 (2 reviews)

"Spicy and fruity

"The Delas team is on a roll [...] and the 2018 Gigondas Les Reinages is a fine example of the work done by this négociant. Notes of spice and leather accent ripe cherries in this full-bodied, silky, mouthwatering and long wine." (Wine Advocate 2019).

Delas Frères - Côte-Rôtie Seigneur de Maugiron 2018

4/5 (1 review)

"Tasted blind, the 2018 Côte Rôtie Seigneur de Maugiron shows a full nose of purple fruit, alongside herbaceous, mocha and peppery nuances. Medium- to full-bodied, its silky texture is nonetheless a little taut and nervous due to its lively acidity." (Wine Advocate 2019)

Delas Frères - Saint-Joseph Sainte-Epine Sélection Parcellaire 2016

4.3/5 (9 reviews)

After 18 months of barrel ageing, this Saint Joseph Sainte Epine reveals a beautiful intensity and concentration of black fruits with a touch of pepper and flint. Its full-bodied richness and fine tannins provide an explosive finish. A little jewel of the appellation!

Delas Frères - Condrieu La Galopine 2015

4.1/5 (7 reviews)

"La Galopine 2015 is a sublime wine that offers classic, medium-bodied notes of crisp peach, green grass, cumin and exotic spices in a fresh, balanced package." (Wine Advocate 2015 - Robert Parker). A classic!

Delas Frères - Saint-Joseph Les Challeys rouge 2016

3.8/5 (9 reviews)

"The 2016 Saint Joseph les Challeys is already superbly approachable. Ripe cherries and toasted almonds bring an almost dessert profile, but savory notes of black olives provide the foundation. Supple tannins make it delicious and easy to drink." (Wine Advocate 2017 - Robert Parker). A bottle not to be missed!
