The Hermitage Rouge Ligne de Crête by Delas Frères is an ode to the sublimity of Syrah, grown on the unrivaled slopes of the Hermitage in the Rhône Valley. This wine is the result of a meticulous selection of grapes coming from the highest and most prestigious parcels, where the terroir best expresses the power and finesse that have made the Hermitage denomination famous throughout the world.

Wine Profile: At first visual impact, Hermitage Rouge Ligne de Crête amazes with its dark, deep and inviting red color. The nose is greeted by a rich and intensely aromatic bouquet, which ranges from notes of ripe black fruit, such as blackberry and cassis, to nuances of violet, pepper, chocolate and a light hint of oriental spices. This olfactory complexity is further enriched by subtle traces of minerality and an elegant integration of wood, the result of aging in barrique.

On the palate, the wine demonstrates a mastery of balance between power and finesse. The tannins are structured but silky, perfectly integrated into a full body that conveys intense and persistent flavors, mirroring the olfactory promises and adding dimensions of depth with touches of liquorice, moist earth and a long, memorable finish that persists with elegance and complexity.

Gastronomic Pairings: This wine is an ideal companion for intense and flavourful dishes. Its structure and complexity pair beautifully with roasted red meats, game dishes, rich stews and blue cheeses. The intensity of the Syrah in this Hermitage can also complement spicy dishes, offering an intriguing contrast and complex harmony of flavors.
