Delas Chateauneuf Du Pape Red Blend

A testament to the unique terroir of the Rhône Valley, Delas Châteauneuf-du-Pape is a wine of exceptional character. Grown on terraced slopes of sun-drenched quartz stones, the grapes benefit from the region's warm climate and well-draining soils.

Traditional winemaking techniques are employed, with gentle pressing and fermentation in concrete vats to preserve the fruit's purity. The subsequent maceration period allows for optimal extraction of color and tannins. Aging in large oak tuns introduces subtle nuances of spice and complexity, while also allowing the wine to develop its full potential.

This harmonious interplay of terroir, traditional methods, and careful aging results in a Châteauneuf-du-Pape that is both powerful and elegant, reflecting the very essence of the region.

TASTING NOTES

The colour is a deep garnet red. To the nose, the "Haute Pierre" cuvée is characterised by strong spicy aromas, which show a rich, powerful body wrapped around with a more delicate yet tightly knit tannic framework. Rich and unctuous on the palate, the finish reveals some intense, liquorice like flavours.
