Les Granieres de la Nerthe captures the spirit of Chateauneuf-du-Pape, with its mosaic of soils and grape varieties. It illustrates the elegance and finesse of wines from Chateau La Nerthe, the famed property owned by the Richard Family. Made from the estate's younger vines, this blend of Gernache, Syrah, Cinsault & Mourvedre expresses a lively and fruit-driven character. Enjoy upon release.
Wine Spectator: 91 Points
Juicy and direct, with tasty raspberry and blackberry coulis notes backed by anise and apple wood accents. Shows sweet spice and fruitcake notes that chime through the toasty finish, while the fruit keeps pace.
Wine Enthusiast: 91 Points
Made from the estate's younger vines, this juicy blend exudes fresh black currant and purple plums with a squeeze of orange oil, and finishes with a firm mineral finish. Sandy tannins are gentle to the palate, making the wine approachable in its youth. This should pair beautifully with braised protein dishes such as Osso Bucco.
Decanter: 90 Points
Lifted herbal, red/dark fruit scents. A precise, drinkable style with refreshing acidity, warming alcohol and a long, refined, floral finish. Pretty classy stuff. Blend: 55% Grenache, 25% Cinsault, 10% Mourvedre
