Tasting note
Pale yellow color with hints of green. On the nose elegant white flower notes (acacia, elderberry) with almond and fresh pear aromas. Freshness and precision in the mouth, full-bodied, rounded and balanced with texture and length. Light oaky finish but still remaining subtle and fine.
Wine-food combination
Service this wine with all kinds of raw fishes such as a gambas tartar of carpaccio of Coquilles St. Jacques.
Vinification
The grapes are hand picked fully ripe just to keep their balance and their aromatic expression. All the grapes are directly pressed in a pneumatic press for 3 hours. After 24 hours, the juice is racked and the fermentation at low temperature begins to protect all flavors, mostly in oak barrels and 1/2 muids for Roussanne and Grenache and partly in tank and barrels for Clairette and Bourboulenc in order to be aged on fine lees for almost 9 months. Final blending will be done just before the bottling.
Soil
The vineyards of Château La Nerthe are a mosaic of 57 plots in which all the 4 main soil types of Châteauneuf du Pape are represented. They grow 13 grape varieties on 92 hectares, most of them surrounded at the château. These vineyards enjoy an exceptional location, the comprises terraces and hillsides typical of local soils with clay-limestone pebbles. The other 32 hectares forming the area of La Crau lie on a clay rich soil, covered with worn flat pebbles and some sandstone.
