Chateau La Nerthe Les Cassagnes Côtes du Rhône Villages Rouge 2021 over-94 with chalky-fine mineral underpinnings andPower, structure and colour are the remarkable components of this wine. The colour is a beautiful deep purple red, with violet reflections. The nose is expressive and dominated by Syrah, floral (violet) and spicy (pepper) notes.

A balanced wine, accessible in its youth
