Tasting Notes
Moving to the reds and starting with the single Cornas release, the 2015 Cornas Chante Perdrix comes from three terroirs: Reynard, Champelrose and St. Romain, all of which are granite. It was completely destemmed and aged in a mix of stainless steel and barrels. Crème de cassis, toasted spice, barrique and hints of charcoal give way to a rich, medium to full-bodied, beautifully fresh and focused red that has present, yet ripe tannin. It will keep for 10-15 years. (90-92 Points) Jeb Dunnuck. 228, The Wine Advocate
The celebrated Delas Frères wine company was founded back in 1835. Since 1996, the spirit and soul that contributed to its reputation for high quality wines have been restored.
The company's new management has made important investments in the Saint-Jean-de-Muzols production site near Tournon-sur-Rhône.
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 ageing cellars, are among the new quality measures at Delas, all aimed at perpetuating and enhancing the expression of the Terroir.
