Château La Nerthe Les Cassagnes Côtes-du-Rhône Villages Rouge 2023, crafted by Rémi Jean from organically farmed vineyards in the southern Rhône, is a polished blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre. It opens with aromas of ripe blackberry, wild herbs, and black pepper, followed by a palate of dark cherry, plum, and garrigue spice. Medium-full in body, it shows fine, velvety tannins and a supple mineral backbone that carries through to a long, savoury finish. Recently awarded 91 points by Wine Enthusiast, this elegant, biodynamic Rhône red captures both generosity and finesse – ideal for grilled meats or slow roasts.
