Chateauneuf du Pape 2004 La Nerthe

Professionelle Bewertungen

Robert Parker (89)

The 2004 Chateauneuf du Pape Tradition, a blend of 56% Grenache, 24% Syrah, 12% Mourvedre, and the rest Cinsault and other grapes, is much softer and more accessible without nearly the depth of the 2005. It is a dark plum/garnet color with a big nose of dusty, loamy soil notes intermixed with red and black fruits and hints of herbs, pepper, and mineral. It has excellent texture and is soft, ripe, and ideal for drinking over the next 7-10 years.

Ripe, showing lots of raspberry, blackberry and licorice flavors, with solid minerality and notes of tobacco and roasted herb. The long, fleshy, smoky finish shows fine acidity.
