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
Delas Frères is a historic Rhône Valley house founded in 1835, with a long tradition of producing wines that reflect the diversity and depth of the northern and southern Rhône. Based in Tournon-sur-Rhône, the domaine holds vineyards in some of the region’s most prestigious appellations, including Hermitage, Côte-Rôtie, Cornas, Crozes-Hermitage and Saint-Joseph, as well as key southern crus such as Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas.
Since the 1990s, under the direction of winemaker Jacques Grange, Delas has elevated its reputation with meticulous vineyard work, lower yields, and careful parcel selection. Farming is sustainable, and fruit from both estate-owned and long-term grower partnerships is vinified with precision and respect for site. In the cellar, fermentations are traditional but finely managed, with restrained extraction and thoughtful use of oak to preserve freshness and terroir character.
The wines combine Rhône typicity with polish: Syrah expressions that balance perfume and structure, and Grenache-based blends that show generosity and spice. Today, Delas Frères stands as a reference point for high-quality Rhône wines, bridging a long heritage with a modern commitment to clarity, balance and terroir-driven expression.
