  April 19, 2024 - Deep purple. Perhaps a glimpse of tawney.
  Aroma dark cherry and rainy forest.
  Palate, tobacco plum, stewed cherries, moment of chocolate
  Fairly bright acidity. Finish is almost cola like..

  March 19, 2022 - Delas' 2018 Ventoux is an unspecified blend of Grenache and Syrah that was fermented and aged in stainless steel. Deep ruby in color, it serves up an attractive package of red bramble fruits, cocoa, clove and lavender. Medium-bodied, softly tannic, seamlessly alcoholic (14.5%) and with good freshness, it stays dense on the mid-palate and concludes with a silky-textured, medium-length finish. This well-priced Southern Rhone is an "easy drinker" in every respect. It can be popped, poured and enjoyed any time over the next 2-3 years. Drink now-2025.

  February 18, 2022 - decanted for a couple hours. relatively smooth on the front with fruit forward nose, and even at this young the tannins are pretty easy going on the finish. could sit for longer but at this price drinking fine now for a simple evening bottle.
