FEATURES
🏰 Delas Hermitage Domaine des Tourettes 2019 is a highly-rated Syrah from the prestigious Hermitage appellation, known for its 【power, complexity, and impressive aging potential】. The 2019 vintage offers a darker, more black-fruited, smoky profile with ample scorched earth, graphite, leather, and classic Hermitage meatiness. Expect ripe plum sauce, cherry preserves, and blackberry paste flavors underscored with anise, apple wood, and sweet tobacco notes, alongside black and blue fruits, incense, violet, olive, and black pepper. It has a robust yet elegant structure with velvety, well-integrated tannins. While approachable now, it will benefit from 4-5 years in the cellar and can be enjoyed for two decades.
🍴 Chinese Cantonese food pairing: This powerful Rhone Syrah is a perfect match for rich Cantonese dishes like braised beef short ribs with star anise or roasted goose. Its intensity also stands up to Western pairings such as roasted lamb, beef ribeye, venison, or slow-braised meats. Dishes incorporating black olive, rosemary, thyme, or mushrooms would also be excellent.
🥂 fit for event suggestion: Ideal for a sophisticated dinner party, a special celebration, or as a wine to cellar and enjoy over many years, showcasing the best of Northern Rhône Syrah.
