Delas, Saint-Joseph Cuvee Francois de Tournon Size:6x750ml This is a difficult wine

This is a difficult wine to find in the marketplace and it is rarely presented for official review

round and vibrant middle weight flavors that display a tangy finish where noticeable wood also surfaces

The finer medium-bodied flavors also possess a seductive mouthfeel thanks to the abundance of sappy dry extract that buffers the very firm tannic spine supporting the lingering finale where the only nit is a hint of warmth

the 2018 Mourvèdre leaps from the glass with vibrant notes of wild blueberries

Delas, Saint-Joseph Cuvee Francois de Tournon Size:6x750ml This is a difficult wineBrilliant ruby. Deeply pitched dark berry and violet pastille aromas are brightened by Asian spices and mineral qualities that gain strength with air. At once ripe and lively on the palate, offering juicy black raspberry and bitter cherry flavors and a touch of cola. Shows very good clarity and appealing sweetness on the finish, which is framed by silky tannins. This wine is delicious right now. Josh Raynolds
