Description

The 2024 Delas Frères Côtes-du-Rhône Saint-Esprit Rouge is a generous Southern Rhône blend of 54% Grenache, 28% Syrah, 9% Marselan, 5% Mourvèdre and 4% Carignan. It opens with aromas of ripe raspberry, cherry and dark berries, accompanied by violet, liquorice, sweet spice and subtle notes of chocolate and hazelnut.

On the palate, it is rounded, juicy and approachable, with the ripe Grenache providing warmth and generosity while Syrah contributes freshness and structure. Fine tannins support the fruit, and maturation for at least 12 months - principally in stainless steel with selected parcels aged in oak - preserves brightness while adding gentle complexity. The finish is savoury, spicy and persistent.

About the region

Rhône Valley · Côtes du Rhône

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.
