2017 Hermitage Les Bessards, Delas Frères

2017 Hermitage Les Bessards, Delas Frères

From a single lieu-dit on poor granitic soil. Surprisingly open. Real griotte cherry, amazing power. There’s intensity here, with complexity, purity and finesse.

With an impressive female winemaker, Claire Darnaud, at the helm since 2010 (though with experience there dating back to 1996), and considerable investment in the cellar to move to the historic town centre, the wines here are some of the more refined in the region. Careful never to use more than 40% new oak, Claire is a master of her craft.
