WINE DESCRIPTION
Delas Saint-Esprit Côtes-du-Rhône Blanc is a white wine produced by Delas Frères, a renowned winery in the Rhône Valley. The wine is made from a blend of local grape varieties, including Grenache Blanc, Marsanne, Roussanne, and Viognier, grown in the Côtes-du-Rhône appellation. The vineyards are located on steep slopes with a mix of clay and limestone soils, which impart a unique minerality to the wine. The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully sorted before undergoing a gentle pressing and fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The resulting wine is crisp and refreshing, with aromas of white flowers, citrus, and stone fruit, and a lively acidity that makes it a perfect match for seafood, salads, and light dishes.

The finish is refreshing and lingering with a hint of minerality. Enjoy it with a light seafood dish or on its own.
