The intensity and finesse of a great white wine from the Rhône Valley

The property

Founded in 1835, Maison Delas Frères embodies one of the great signatures of the northern Rhône Valley. After its acquisition by the Champagne House Deutz in 1977, the history of Delas is enriched with an international dimension, amplified in 1993 by its integration into the Rouzaud family, the main shareholder of the Louis Roederer group. True to its philosophy, the house highlights the geological and climatic richness of the Rhone terroirs, vinifying each plot separately in order to reveal the uniqueness of each appellation.

The vineyard

Resulting from a rigorous plot selection, Clos Boucher is born from a plot ideally exposed to the south. This exceptional Condrieu wine is only produced during remarkable vintages, with a production limited to about 7,000 bottles per year, a guarantee of rarity and quality.

Vinification and aging

After a delicate pressing, the musts ferment in new barrels, then benefit from aging on fine lees for nearly six months. Throughout this period, regular stirring is practiced, promoting aromatic complexity and richness of texture.

Blend

100% viognier.
