Wine Reviews
A distinctive, sanguine style, with serious, salty concentration and notes of soy and brown bread behind the core of plum and crushed cherry. Silky in feel, with bolts of graphite bringing definition and weight. Shows the tang of smoked meat at the end, where alder smoke plays out.
Fresher and livelier in comparison to the 2022, the 2023 Châteauneuf-du-Pape from Château la Nerthe reveals aromas of peonies, rose, flowers and dark cherries. Medium- to full-bodied, enveloping and elegant, it’s elegantly juicy with delicate tannins, concluding with a fresh, ethereal finish.
A somber, smoky bouquet of dark berries, dark cherries, licorice and violet. Medium-bodied, round and supple, it’s frame by structured tannins and a dense, juicy mid-palate, concluding with a delicate, ethereal finish.
A focused expression, this wine delivers pure red and black fruits unfolding against a delicate rose-petal backdrop. Silky yet chewy tannins gradually reveal layers of red cherry, pomegranate, spice, violets, and a hint of clove.
A lovely wine – so charming, fresh and compact, with great energy and freshness. The acidity really helps to balance the blackberry eau-de-vie fruit, which is potent but precise and powerful. A wine that has harmony and freshness, despite the high alcohol.
