Chateau La Nerthe Chateauneuf Du Pape Rouge

Other Reds | Cotes du Rhone, France

This Château La Nerthe is harmonious and balanced: pretty red garnet colour with purplish hints. On the nose, a mix of ripe red fruits (cherry) and vegetal scents (licorice, anise). Silky textured, the wine is round, pulpy, with noticable but supple tannins offering red stone fruits (plum) and herbal notes (menthol) on the finish. The whole confirms a solar vintage but without excess of alcohol or dryness, the wine reveals on the contrary balance with a nice freshness to watch for a decade or more.

38% Syrah, 35% Grenache noir, 25% Mourvèdre, 1% Cinsault, 1% Others
