On the nose, the “Domaine des Tourettes” white Hermitage is characterized by floral notes and a scent of candied citrus, complemented by subtle oak. Its full power is expressed in a concentrated and opulent palate with a perfectly balanced structure. This Hermitage offers a pleasant freshness and lovely minerality that carry the aromas through to a long, flavorful finish. A fatal beauty.

Wine rated 94/100 (2020 vintage)

Rated estate (2023 guide): 3*Stars (High-quality production that serves as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

At his new facilities in the heart of Tain, Jacques Grange has a magnificent, state-of-the-art facility at his disposal. He is assisted by Marco Beckmann, an Italian oenologist and expert taster. The upcoming vintages look promising. In Hermitage, the new cuvée from the Grandes Vignes at the top of the hill brings this underutilized terroir to the forefront.

Rated Estate (2023 Guide) Award-Winning Wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the estate:

Founded in 1835, the house has been owned by Champagne Deutz (Roederer Group) since 1977.

RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France

Rated Estate (2023 Guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)

About the estate:

Part of the Deutz Champagne house since 1977—which is itself part of the Louis Roederer Group—Delas is a reputable winery. Priority has been given to vineyards with extensive mass-selection plantings. The house cultivates 30 hectares of its own vineyards, including 10 very well-located plots in Hermitage: 8 in Les Bessards and 2 in L’Ermite. The house rounds out its lineup by purchasing must or grapes. We admit to being a bit cautious at times regarding the overly pronounced aging profiles of the most prestigious vintages, which, in our opinion, would benefit from being crafted to highlight the fruit and freshness more closely. It’s worth noting that, since 2019, the winery has had a brand-new winemaking and reception facility in Tain.
