Maison Delas only releases this cuvée in exceptional years and production is extremely limited (6,000 bottles); making it a collector’s piece. This single vineyard cuvée from the famed hillside of the Hermitage appellation delivers full throttle Syrah from the steep granite slopes of the “Les Bessards” lieu dit. The 2018 vintage is both powerful and refined; dark berry fruit, violet and pepper spice, firm tannins and great balance for long ageing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRegion\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eRhône Valley \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e|| \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eWinery\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e: Maison Delas Frères\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGrapes\u003c\/b\u003e: 100% Syrah\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black; mso-themecolor: text1;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAging\u003c\/b\u003e: 12‑16 months in French oak barrels (50% new for this vintage) on steep granite soils\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eABV\u003c\/b\u003e: 13.5% || \u003cb\u003eDecant\u003c\/b\u003e: 30–60 minutes || \u003cb\u003eServing Temp\u003c\/b\u003e: 15‑17°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePairing\u003c\/b\u003e: Roast duck breast with berry or plum jus; venison or other game in a wild mushroom and herb sauce\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTasting Notes: \u003c\/b\u003eThe 2018 Hermitage Les Bessards, Delas shows a deep, intense purple red hue with aromas of concentrated blackberries, cassis, violet florals, peppercorn, and smoky\/mineral notes.
