Have had prior vintages of this CDR red blend, and once again, not disappointed - funky nose with good fruit & tannin structure - lovely wine!

Decent dusty pepper nose. High acid palate. Lacking fruit a bit, but nice with leg of lamb.

A blend of 60% Syrah & 40% Grenache with rich berry fruit and floral bouquet. On the palate sweet plum and red berry fruit flavors with some oak and licorice notes. Soft tannins, medium length ending with fruit in the finish. Nice value!

Always a reliable Côtes-du-Rhône, Delas goes over the top in 2015. Great vintage and huge value - well balanced, fruity and nice mineral notes. Just a whiff of garrigue. Loved it for drinking now or holding a couple of years

Hubby liked but I thought it was just OK. Not fruity at all - more earthy.
