Claire Darnaud (co-winemaker with Jacques Grange) thinks the 2013s "will enjoy a very long life on their freshness." She says she wouldn’t start getting into them until well after the '14s, which "might not ever really close up, or at least not so much that they're not enjoyable to drink." The 2014s are fleshy, seamless and emphatically fruity in character, while the '13s, which I reviewed last year, show the tension and verve for aging.

One-third new oak is now the maximum percentage used for any wine here at Delas, and that number really only applies to the big guns, meaning the Côte-Rôtie La Landonne and Hermitage Bessards. Speaking of oak, winemaker Claire Darnaud told me that there's a lot of experimenting going on with matching coopers to individual wines. "Some types of barrels brings stronger tannins that might not be necessary for wines like Hermitage or Cornas but good for, say, Crozes," she said, "so we're looking at the oak tannins and how they give structure and when it's a good or bad thing."
