Bettane & Desseauve
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 into the spotlight.

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 hectares in prime locations in Hermitage: 8 in Les Bessards and 2 in L’Ermite. The house rounds out its portfolio by purchasing must or grapes. We admit to being somewhat cautious at times regarding the overly pronounced aging profiles of its most prestigious cuvées, which, in our opinion, would benefit from being crafted to better highlight the fruit and freshness. It’s worth noting that, since 2019, the winery has had a brand-new winemaking and reception facility in Tain.

Review by Mr. JEAN S. Posted on June 7, 2018
My first tasting left me disappointed. It was light. I'll give it another try in a few months, since I've had some pleasant surprises with Syrah before.

Not much aroma, but no off-notes. A basic Syrah
