La Nerthe's 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee des Cadettes is a blend of approximately one-third each Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. Eighty percent of the wine spent a year in new oak barrels, but much of that has been absorbed into the wine, and I see that my notes don't make reference to overt oak descriptors. This cuvée represents a vineyard´s flagship of the oldest bushes selection.
Scents of raspberry and spice lead the way, followed by a firm, full-bodied palate. The tannins are present from front to back, but they're ripe and silky, lingering elegantly on the finish. Its rich taste and southern-french temperament is the best with beef, grilled duck, pigeon, game or lamb. Also very good with soft sheep cheese.
