Delas Frères grows 30 hectares of vines comprising 10 hectares in the Hermitage AOC, 2 hectares in Saint-Joseph AOC and 18 hectares in Crozes-Hermitage. 

In addition to the grapes produced by Delas' own wine growing team, Delas' close relationships with like-minded owner-wine growers ensure that the company is able to source grapes grown on individual parcels, which reflect their own unique terroir.

The Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise "La Pastourelle" comes from limestone-based clay soils on the southern border of the appellation. Made with the grape variety Muscat "à petit grain" (small grapes). Average Delas production: 6,000 to 8,000 bottles per year.

The wine is unoaked and has a pale golden hue. The bouquet of this Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise shows intense fruity and floral aromas. On the palate, this wine has deliciously elegant freshness. It is full-bodied without excess, and has lingering fruity aromas on a melon and lemon-tinged finish.

The perfect partner to a fruit tart.
