Delas Frères Hermitage Domaine des Tourettes 2015 75cl
Delas Frères Hermitage Domaine des Tourettes 2015 is an all-time classic Northern Rhône Syrah. Made from grapes grown on several lieu-dits: Les Bessards (Delas are a major owner of this site, l'Ermite and Le Sabot). Nowhere else in the world can produce a Syrah that combines the muscularity of Hermitage with this level of poise and complexity.
Delas Frères is one of the key vineyard owners on the hill of Hermitage, in addition to owning many other top terroirs across the Northern and Southern Rhône. They work also with farmers to source grapes for their negociant wines. In general, the Delas style is for wines that are both plush and detailed; their wines offer straightforward pleasure and at the same time are articulate in expressing terroir. Winemaker Jacques Grange, originally from Burgundy, is often credited with bringing an elegant style to the wines made at this now world-class Domaine.
