Делас
The company was founded in 1835 by Charles Audibert and Philippe Delas. In 1924, Philippe's heirs took full ownership and continued to develop the business, expanding it by purchasing a vineyard in Chateauneuf-du-Pape and enlarging the Hermitage vineyards. In 1960, Michel Delas (third generation) took over and cemented the reputation of a large wine trading company (négociant) in North Rhône. In 1977, Delas Frères and Champagne Deutz joined forces in a joint project in Saint-Jean-de-Muzols, near Tournon sur-Rhône, by the Saint-Joseph vineyards. The alliance proved to be more than successful, and in 1993 Deutz and Delas Frères joined the Roederer Group, where Delas' philosophy continues to evolve and flourish today.

The Rhone Valley is a long, narrow strip in the south of France. In practice, this region is divided into two sub-regions, each with its own type and identity - North and South Rhone. The northern part is best known for its legendary and long-lasting red wines, mainly from Syrah grapes: Hermitage, Ivory Coast, St. Joseph and Cornas, as well as the fragrant white Viognier from Condrieu. The south is home to the full Chateauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas, as well as the light Rose of Tavel. Chateauneuf-du-Pape can be a blend of up to 13 different varieties, 3 of which are even white. This is the main difference between it and Gigondas, where white varieties in the blend are not allowed. The most famous of these main red varieties are Grenache, Mourvedre, Syrah and Cinsault, and the white ones are Roussanne, Marsanne and Viognier.

Grenache (Garnacha) is a red-wine grape grown extensively in France, Spain, Australia and the United States. Grenache is the French name for the grape, while in Spain it is known as Garnacha, and on the island of Sardinia they call it Cannonau. In France it is most commonly found in the classic Southern Rhone Blend ( it is the main grape variety in Chateauneuf-du-Pape) but also plays a main role in one of southern France's signature Rosè wine style in Provence. In Spain, Garnacha is the key constituent in the prestigious wines of Priorat.
