The 2023 Delas Saint-Joseph Sainte Épine is a refined Northern Rhône Syrah showing blackberry, dark cherry and plum with violet, cracked pepper, dried herbs and subtle earthy spice.

On the palate, it is concentrated yet finely structured, with vibrant acidity, firm tannins and layers of dark fruit, pepper and savoury mineral character. The finish is long, dry and persistent, with excellent potential for further bottle development.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Syrah drinkers seeking a structured, site-focused Saint-Joseph with depth and savoury complexity. Best enjoyed from 2027–2038. Pair with roast venison, lamb shoulder with rosemary, beef fillet with mushroom jus or wild 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.
