From one of the appellation’s most historic estates, this organically grown 2022 red combines the generosity of the Southern Rhône with freshness, savoury complexity and an elegant, finely structured palate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blend is 40% Grenache, 35% Syrah, 20% Mourvèdre and 5% Cinsault, drawn from vineyards planted across the estate’s varied Châteauneuf-du-Pape terroirs. Eighteen months of maturation in a combination of traditional foudres, seasoned and new barrels, and concrete allows the fruit and spice to take centre stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRipe cherry, strawberry and dark berries lead the nose, followed by violet, liquorice, peppery garrigue and a subtle smoky note. The palate is medium to full-bodied, with a juicy core of red and black fruit, silky yet well-defined tannins and a lovely sense of balance. Mint, cracked pepper and savoury herbs carry through the long, polished finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is plenty of pleasure here now, particularly after a short decant, but the depth and structure will reward careful cellaring into the mid-2030s. A superb match for roast lamb, duck, venison, slow-cooked beef, mushroom dishes or Provençal cuisine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry: France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegion: Southern Rhône\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAppellation: AOP Châteauneuf-du-Pape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProducer: Château La Nerthe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVintage: 2022\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlend: 40% Grenache, 35% Syrah, 20% Mourvèdre and 5% Cinsault\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStyle: Dry, medium to full-bodied red wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFarming: Organically grown grapes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaturation: 18 months in foudres, seasoned and new barrels, and concrete\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlcohol: 15%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eServing temperature: 16–18°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eServing suggestion: Decant for 45–60 minutes when young\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCellaring: Enjoy now or cellar into the mid-2030s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBottle size: 750 mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccolade: 93 points, Wine Spectator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45199817179336,"sku":null,"price":129.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0577\/3790\/4328\/files\/la_nerth_cdp_c1bc0de1-07e5-4b77-b974-0374cb30a848.png?v=1787701140","url":"https:\/\/www.boccaccio.com.au\/products\/2022-chateau-la-nerthe-chateauneuf-du-pape-rouge","provider":" Boccaccio Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
