L'Hermitage Domaine des Tourettes Rouge by Delas Frères is a wine that embodies the power and elegance of Syrah in its ideal habitat of the Rhône Valley. This prestigious red wine comes from one of the most renowned wineries in the region, Delas Frères, known for its ability to combine traditional methods with technical innovations to produce wines of exceptional quality. Domaine des Tourettes is a distinctive expression of the Hermitage, showcasing the depth and complexity that only the finest terroirs can offer.

The vineyard from which the Syrah for this Hermitage comes is located in privileged positions, with soils composed of gravel and clay on a granite bed, which give the wine its characteristic tannic structure and concentration. Meticulous care in the vineyard and rigorous selection of the grapes ensure that only the highest quality fruit is used.

Wine Profile: Visually, the Hermitage Domaine des Tourettes Rouge presents itself with an intense and deep red color, almost inky, a prelude to its aromatic and gustatory richness. On the nose, the wine offers a complex and enveloping bouquet, with notes of ripe black fruit, such as blackberries and plums, enriched by accents of spices, black pepper, dark chocolate and a touch of aromatic herbs and wet earth, which add depth and nuances intriguing.

In the mouth, the power of Syrah is fully manifested, with a robust but elegant structure, velvety and well-integrated tannins, and a balanced acidity that brings freshness. Rich, intense black fruit flavors blend with notes of spice, leather and tobacco, culminating in a long, lingering finish that leaves a lasting impression.

Gastronomic Pairings: L'Hermitage Domaine des Tourettes Rouge is a wine that requires equally expressive and structured dishes. It pairs beautifully with grilled or roasted red meats, game, rich mushroom dishes and mature cheeses. Its complexity and intensity also make it ideal as a meditation wine, to be tasted slowly to appreciate its evolution in the glass.

This wine represents the pinnacle of quality and expression of Syrah in the Rhône Valley, offering wine lovers an unforgettable experience that combines power, elegance and complexity. The Hermitage Domaine des Tourettes Rouge by Delas Frères is a tribute to the richness of the Hermitage terroir and the winemaking mastery that characterizes this historic winery.

The winery

Delas Frères – Winery in Vallée du Rhône (Rodano settentrionale)

Discover the story and wines of Delas Frères.

A Northern Rhône maison that combines wines from its estate vineyards with wines sourced from partner growers; known for its Syrah-based cuvées and its parcel-based approach to the appellations of the Upper Rhône.
Region: Vallée du Rhône (Rodano settentrionale)
Country: Francia
Founded: 1835
Grapes: Syrah, Marsanne, Roussanne, Viognier, Merlot
Estate-owned vineyards concentrated in the Upper Rhône. Parcel-based approach with single-vineyard labels such as Les Bessards, Le Clos and Clos Boucher. Specializing in Syrah for Northern Rhône reds; Viognier for Condrieu; and white blends based on Marsanne and Roussanne. Historic house with roots dating back to 1835 and a quality revival beginning in the 1990s. Winemaking and aging aimed at preserving terroir expression.
Winery history
Founded as a trading business in the 19th century, the house has documented roots dating back to 1835. Throughout the 20th century the family expanded the business and the company adopted the name Delas Frères. More recently it was acquired by the Rouzaud group and underwent a revitalization: in the 1990s technical and agronomic investments were strengthened, the estate progressively expanded its vineyard holdings and, after renovation work and new acquisitions, opened modern winemaking facilities in Tain-l’Hermitage between 2015 and 2019.
Production philosophy
Enhancing the territory and individual parcels, putting people and vineyard management at the center of the work. The estate adopts an "own sourcing" approach and favors winemaking practices that respect the expression of the terroir: parcel-by-parcel vinification, predominant use of destemmed grapes, cold macerations, extended lees contact, and reduced interventions such as fining or filtration on the top cuvées.
Terroir and vineyards
Operates mainly in the Northern Rhône with its own vineyards and single‑parcel wines. The maison also works with parcels and partners to produce typical AOCs such as Condrieu, Côte‑Rôtie and Cornas, and offers Southern Rhône wines through purchases/contracts.
Awards and recognitions
Individual high-end cuvées have received high scores and accolades from critics and specialist publications; the most prestigious bottlings are frequently rated highly in tasting notes.
