The inky-colored 2015 Saint Joseph les Challeys has a wonderfully fruity, rich and textured style, as well as classic minerality and the black and blue fruit that's the hallmark of the vintage. While it will be one of the more approachable wines in the vintage, two to three years of cellaring are still warranted.

The St Joseph appellation is a slightly mixed bag in 2014, but these releases from Delas offer plenty to love. The 2014 Saint Joseph les Challeys sports a deep ruby/purple color and a meaty, smoky style in its jammy blackberry, charred meats, pepper and crushed rock-driven personality. Drink this medium-bodied, nicely textured, classic Northern Rh?ne over the coming 4-6 years.

The 2013 Saint Joseph les Challeys is a medium-bodied, savory, spiced and peppery effort that has lots of fruit in a forward, easy drinking package. Vinified in concrete tanks and aged all in stainless steel, drink this solid northern Rh?ne over the coming 6-7 years.
