Few wineries carry the same weight in the Rhone as the name Delas. The Delas family began making wine in the Rhone Valley in the early 1800’s, and developed quite a reputation over the years. But everything changed when Jacque Grange came aboard and the winery went from one of the better wineries in the Rhone to one of the best wineries in France and beyond.
Jacques Grange is a Burgundian winemaker who spent years under the tutelage of the famous Michel Chapoutier before he joined the Delas team. His impact was immediate, with Robert Parker Jr. himself writing, “Delas has joined the ranks of the finest Rhoney Valley producers. The impetus for the change is Jacques Grange.”
Grange doesn’t do it alone though, together he and Claire Darnaud, a star in her own right, manage a winemaking team at a winemaking facility that is second to none. If you’ve ever been to Delas, it’s stupid nice. Truthfully, it looks more like a winemaking museum than a working facility– but for a winery producing some of the best Cote-Rotie, Hermitage, Chateaneuf-du-Pape and St. Joseph, with dozens of skus across both whites and reds, I guess they need the space.
The beauty of Delas is in the value of the wines. Ranging anywhere from $10 all the way up to $300/btl, the team at Delas puts the same care into the Ventoux as they do their signature Côte-Rôtie ‘La Landonne’ 2018. It doesn’t matter, everything is made to be fresh, structured and unique to the terroir.

It’s always nice to be in good standing with one of the most beloved wine brands in America! These won’t last long! This is an opulent, powerful dark-fruited Cabernet with tightly woven tannins, that is just raring and ready to go. Textbook, full-bodied, revved up and ready to go, this new Caymus Napa Valley Cabernet is the definition of a crowd pleaser.
At J Vineyards, Nicole is nothing short of a magician, making 30 different skus or more each vintage between her Pinots, Chardonnays, and Sparkling wines. For the vineyard’s flagship Russian River Valley Pinot Noir, up to 100 individual small lots are combined to make this great wine. Somehow, the blend is effortless–a quintessential RRV Pinot that has those soaring aromatics, bright red fruits, clove, and nutmeg spice with perfect balance.
Anne Sery describes her Trousse Chemise Cabernets as an ode to the Left Bank and her winemaking roots. It’s a beautiful and fresh Cabernet with aromas that leap from the glass with of black raspberry, violets, and creme de liquor notes. The mouth gives generous amounts of juicy black fruits at the core with hints of baking spice and a smooth, savory finish. This is a terrific partner for just about anything from hard cheese, to poultry, summer salads, you name it!
95 Points, Jeb Dunnuck – 95 Points, Lisa Perotti-Brown
The oft 100-point winemaker, Jayson Woodbridge had this to say when tasting his 2021 ‘Stargazing’ Sonoma Pinot: “The wine is vibrant and complex with subtle dark fruits and berries, grandmother’s cherry pie, minerals, and a slight touch of rain-soaked earth, intertwined with a balance and very pleasing easy-going luxury. Should have been priced higher but what the hell.” I have no doubt this clerical error will be addressed in the vintages moving forward. But for now, this is a cult Pinot for under $100/bottle.
