Saint Joseph Les Challeys Rouge

Delas's Saint Joseph Les Challeys Rouge is a single-varietal Shiraz from the Northern Rhône's prestigious Saint Joseph appellation. The 2018 vintage expresses the classic dark-fruit character and peppery minerality of the region, with dominant black cherry and blackberry on the nose, supported by subtle smoke and oak complexity. Medium-full body and balanced tannins make this wine approachable in youth while retaining structure for modest cellaring. Earthy undertones and hints of leather suggest the wine's terroir-driven character and potential for evolution.
