The 2023 Delas Saint-Joseph François de Tournon Rouge is a refined Northern Rhône Syrah showing blackberry, black cherry and plum with violet, cracked pepper, dried herbs and subtle earthy spice.

On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied and structured, with fresh acidity, fine tannins and layers of dark fruit, pepper and savoury mineral character. The finish is dry, balanced and persistent.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Syrah drinkers who enjoy fresh, aromatic Saint-Joseph with fine structure and savoury depth. Best enjoyed over the next 5–8 years. Pair with rosemary lamb cutlets, roast duck with herbs, beef cheek with pepper jus or mushroom and lentil gratin.

About the region

Rhône Valley · Saint-Joseph

The Rhône is really two regions under one name. In the north, between Vienne and Valence, Syrah grows alone on steep granite terraces at Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, Cornas and Saint-Joseph, while Viognier makes the perfumed whites of Condrieu. Further south the valley widens and warms, and Grenache leads blends drawn from a long list of permitted varieties at Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas and Vacqueyras. The two halves share a river and little else.
