2022 Côtes du Rhône Villages Rouge, Les Cassagnes, Château La Nerthe

Description

Château la Nerthe’s Cassagnes vines are found at the heart of the secluded Massif d’Uchaux. The red plantings are dominated by the classic Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. This has a beautifully aromatic nose of dark berries and ripe cherries, accented by hints of black pepper, garrigue herbs and a touch of oak. On the palate, it is rich and full-bodied, with flavours of blackberries, cassis and ripe plums. This is complemented by notes of spice, liquorice and earthy undertones. The tannins are smooth and well-integrated, providing structure and depth. Vibrant but serious enough to pair with game dishes, this is a bargain for the quality.

About this wine

Chateau la Nerthe

Château la Nerthe is a stunning, 500-year-old property becoming ‘one to watch’ in recent years. Working organically since 1998, its 57 parcels on various soils and expositions produce a seamless, complex Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The care taken in both vineyard and cellar has resulted in seriously impressive wines. This property is, absolutely, a worthy rival to the likes of Château de Beaucastel. Winemaker Rémi Jean is as inspiring as the terroir – his understanding of the multiple plots and attention to detail is impressive.
