Description

Delas Frères is a renowned wine company with a history dating back to 1835. After a period of restoration starting in 1996, the company has regained its reputation for producing high-quality wines. The new management has invested heavily in the Saint-Jean-de-Muzols production site, implementing new quality measures to enhance the expression of the terroir. Among these measures are a specially designed vat-house for red wine vinification and a full restructuring of the aging cellars.

One of Delas Frères' highly rated wines is the "La Landonne" produced in the AOC of Côte Rôtie. This single vineyard selection is made from 100% Syrah grapes and is only produced in the very best years, with a limited production of just 2,500 bottles per vintage. The particular bottle in question is the Delas Frères La Ladonne Côte Rôtie Magnum 1.5L 2015.

A magnum bottle is twice the size of a standard wine bottle, holding 1.5 litres of wine. This size is popular among wine enthusiasts and collectors as it allows for extended aging due to the lower amount of oxygen that enters the bottle relative to a standard-sized bottle. The larger size also provides an impressive and eye-catching appearance on a dinner table or in a wine cellar, making it a desirable choice for both personal use and as a gift for wine lovers.

Review

There are two Côte Rôties and the top cuvée is the utterly sensational 2015 Côte Rôtie La Landonne, which should be a candidate for perfection when it’s released. Coming all from the La Landonne lieu-dit and made from 100% Syrah that will see 18 months in 40% new French oak, it offers a huge, layered, and ripe style, as well as notes of blueberries, blackberries, crushed violets, graphite, and minerality. It has sweet tannin, but there are plenty of them, so it’s not for those looking for instant gratification.

Very impressive dark stony and peppery aromas with ripe blackberry and licorice. Attractive brooding style. The palate has a wealth of spicy blackberry fruit flavours. Plush tannins and a warming mocha-dusted finish. Drink from 2020.
