Founded in 1835 and based in Tain-l'Hermitage, in the heart of the Northern Rhone, Delas Freres is one of the valley's historic houses, with nearly two centuries of winegrowing behind it. Since 1993 it has belonged to Champagne Louis Roederer - acquired within the Champagne Deutz group under CEO Fabrice Rosset - whose investment revived a maison Rosset has called a 'sleeping beauty' and repositioned it as a key player in the high-end Northern Rhone. The house works as both grower and blender: it farms its own single-vineyard estates - Domaine des Tourettes in Hermitage, Domaine des Grands Chemins in Crozes-Hermitage and the Sainte-Epine coteau in Saint-Joseph - and sources the rest from long-standing partner growers held to its quality standards, with blending, ageing and bottling all carried out at Delas. In 2019 it inaugurated a new gravity-fed winery in Tain-l'Hermitage, under Burgundy-born winemaker Jacques Grange. Within this range, Les Launes Blanc is the maison's accessible expression of the Northern Rhone's great white varieties, drawn from carefully chosen cool sites in Crozes-Hermitage.

Tasting Notes
Fresh and elegant, carried by minerality and the natural finesse of Marsanne and Roussanne. In youth an elegant bouquet of white flowers and white-fleshed fruit; with time it gains complexity, unveiling delicate honey and gentle spice, with a vibrant, well-textured palate. Serve chilled with white fish, poultry in cream, or soft cheeses.
