Les Cassagnes de La Nerthe 2022
AOP Côtes-du-Rhône
Cassagnes means “green oaks” in Provencal. They border the vineyard where the vines grow between Mediterranean forest and garrigue. Up there, the plots of white grapes retain the freshness and reveal the aromas of fruits and flowers. “Les Cassagnes de La Nerthe” white can be enjoyed with summer dishes, including but not limited to seafood and fish.
This green-tinged pale yellow Côtes du Rhône has a vibrant nose with exotic fruit aromas (mango). The palate is focused and pure, offering mineral-accented zesty flavors and slight bitterness (orange peel). It becomes fleshier with some aeration without losing its freshness and elegance. At the
end a well-balanced wine despite the warmth of this 2022 vintage !
