"Ripe but pristine blackberry and cassis are fresh and juicy in this primary but elegant wine. Medium bodied and vibrantly composed, it's lifted by crisp acidity and taut, persistent tannins. The finish lingers on delicate notes of cocoa, licorice and black pepper. At peak now-2030. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"Bitterschokolade, Zimt, Kräuterbitter, und ein erster Anflug von würziger Entwicklung. Mürber Tannindruck am Gaumen, das Volumen ist nahtlos mit feiner Materie gefüllt, milde Säure, aber kein Alkoholüberschuss, eine Wucht ohne Schwere, saftig abklingend, dürfte schon bald die erste Trinkreife erreichen."

"Perfumed notes of violet and wild thyme introduce the penetrating black-cherry and plum flavors of this wine. It's bristling and vibrant, darkened by shades of bramble and garrigue. Concentrated and held upright by fine, firm tannins, it's already lovely but should improve through 2035 and hold further. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"Ripe, juicy blackberry and mulberry flavors are muted by darker shades of dried garrigue, bramble and earth in this bold but balanced Syrah. It's black-fruit flavors are luscious and youthful still, vibrantly edged with acidity and briskly textured tannins. Enjoyable now it should improve through 2035 and hold further. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"Cracked black pepper galore is the first thing you find. From there you enjoy a blend of herbs, spices, truffle, crushed rocks and red fruits. In the mouth, the wine is vibrant, focused, fresh and clean, with a crisp, peppery, red berry finish. Give it a few years before pulling cork to develop more secondary notes and softness."

"Earth and herbs pop right away before reaching all that sweet, silky, fresh, red fruit. The tannins are soft, the wine has lift and energy, leaving with you a trail of olives and fresh cherries in the finish."

"Inky purple almost opaque colour. Lovely purity on the nose, high ripeness and stony notes with fresh blackberry, cassis, plum and fresh meat. The palate is very dense and concentrated with fine extract and layers, grainy tannin, finely concealed oak, bright dark fruit, almost the texture of a sweet wine even if being classically dry with great purity and freshness all along the massive dark fruit, tremendously long and grippy finish."

"Young, but with an hour or so of air, this seductive, supple, medium/full bodied wine is making it hard to resist its sweet, fresh, kirsch, pepper, black raspberry, spice, floral and earthy pleasure. Lots of freshness and soft textures in the fruit filled finish. Drink this while you are waiting for the La Landonne to come around."

"Von erfreulicher Typizität, mit ausgesprochener Frische und Eleganz, guter Balance und der nötigen Struktur für ein paar zusätzliche Jahre der Kellerruhe. Erfreulich."

"Quite an oaky specimen; the nose is full of mocha, vanilla, cedar, rubber and spice. Shows prickly acidity on an intense palate as well as flavors of tart berry and cherry. "Slightly sour and clamped" were the words of one reviewer; others found it more generous and typical of Côte Rôtie."
yr. 2005 Wine Enthusiast:
87 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Delas Freres Cote Rotie Seigneur de Maugiron" from the vintage 2005 on 01.01.2007 with 87 of 100 points.
"Although there's only aboutnew oak used in this cuvée, it is somewhat apparent on the nose and palate, where cedar, cinnamon and clove take the lead. There's some pretty--some might say Burgundian--fruit, but it's a touch light and herbal."
yr. 2001 Wine Enthusiast:
90 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Delas Freres Cote Rotie Seigneur de Maugiron" from the vintage 2001 on 01.01.2005 with 90 of 100 points.
"This wine appears to be in a somewhat dormant phase, only stubbornly revealing hints of violets and bacon on the nose. Fortunately, you can taste the potential in its blackberry and cured meat flavors and long, mouthwatering finish. Drink 2008-2015."
yr. 1998 Wine Enthusiast:
91 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Delas Freres Cote Rotie Seigneur de Maugiron" from the vintage 1998 on 01.01.2002 with 91 of 100 points.
"The policy of Delas selling this particular cuvée at an older age than its competitors' Côte Rôtie certainly gives this wine a headstart in tasting. With its perfumed berry flavors and ripe but structured fruit, it is already showing signs of being ready to drink. Violets, toast and flavors of dark coffee add to its complexity."
