Hermitage Domaine des Tourettes 2017 - Delas Frères
93/100 Parker
Cellaring: 2020-2030
Tasted by James Molesworth in 2019: "Ripe and juicy to the touch, with a mix of blackberry, mulberry and blackcurrant fruit laced with bramble, licorice snap and burnt alder notes. The tarry grip supports the finish but doesn't impinge on the fruit. Almost approachable now, but there's no rush. Best from 2020 to 2030."- JM

Vineyard: it extends over 3 communes in the Drôme: Tain-l'Hermitage, Crozes-Hermitage and Larnage.
