In a few words ...
Assembly : 100% syrah vinification : the grapes for the "sainte-epine" cuvée are harvested by hand at optimum ripeness. vinification is carried out in the traditional way in open concrete vats after three days of cold pre-fermentation maceration. Fermentation continues at a controlled temperature of 28-30°c. Pigeage and remontage are carried out daily for ten days. Total vatting time can reach twenty days. The wine is aged for fourteen to sixteen months, half in new barrels and the other half in one-year-old barrels. The barrels are regularly topped up. TASTING : dark ruby in color, with hints of violet. the nose develops aromas of black fruits and spices, enhanced by a few mineral and finely woody notes. With good concentration and purity, the wine reveals a sequence of complex aromas of different expression but equal intensity.

Maison Delas
Maison Delas is a domain from the region Vallée du Rhône in France, that produces 31 wines available to purchase, including the wine Delas "Saint Epine" 2020.
Appellation
Saint-Joseph
The appellation Saint-Joseph is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Maison Delas and its 29 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
