Shows the wood from barrel fermentation and maturation a bit on the nose, but also plenty of citrus. It’s broad, yet reined in a bit by oak spice right now, needing time to flesh out. Hard to say it’s better than the excellent ’04 version, but it’s still excellent. 1 Note

Smells nicely honeyed, and it picks up hints of flowers and fresh pears as well. In the mouth, it’s not that rich, rather it’s fresh, fruity and easy to drink now. 1 Note

An interesting take on Marsanne, with 15% Roussanne to lighten it, and also a touch of unreleased CO2 to give it more life. The result is a honeyed but basically neutral wine with a chalky texture. Drink 2007–2010 after it’s smoothed out a little. 1 Note

Honey and apricot aromas make this wine immediately enticing. This blend of Marsanne and Roussanne is rich, full-bodied with attractive honey flavors. There are creamy layers from the wood fermentation and 10 month aging on lees. It’s fat, food friendly and ready to drink. 1 Note

A modern, rich, almost new-world style of wine in its open fruit and generous new wood flavors. Ripe peaches and nectarines give the wine great richness. At this stage, the wood is still too dominant, but over the next four or five years, the opulent fruit will certainly balance out. 1 Note

Although this wine shows hints of honeyed citrus, the house style for the whites at Delas is one of freshness and austerity, not richness. Finishes crisp and clean. 1 Note

A rich, lushly textured wine made from 100% Marsanne that’s barrel fermented, but with the malolactic fermentation blocked. Notes of oranges and apricots lead the way, with an appealing hint of almond. Easy to drink. 1 Note
