Chateauneuf Du Pape Les Cadettes

With bull rib, hare stew with ‘Grand Veneur’ sauce.

The name Cadettes comes from a very old plot of land. This Cuvée is made from our oldest plots (about 80 year old). The plots that make up the Cuvée are mainly based on sandy and clayey soils providing an outs- tanding quality of tannins.

Final blending will age for 12 months partly in large wooden casks (Foudres 50%) and partly in oak barrels (25% new).

Grapes are partly destemmed. Fermentation takes places in 100% tronconic wooden vats using natural yeats with regular punching downs to ensure the best extraction of berries compounds. The maceration lasts 4 weeks.

In the heart of Provence, in the south-east of France, 80 km north of Marseille, Château La Nerthe is a magical belvedere place, overlooked by its 18th century castle and 16th century cellars. Between Avignon and Orange, you can admire the Dentelles de Montmirail, Mont Ventoux and the Palais des Papes. The vineyard covers 92 hectares in the Châteauneuf du Pape appellation with more than 50 plots representing all of the appellation's terroirs. The Château appears unique and unforgettable, nestled in its green park, like an island surrounded by 60 hectares of historic vines in one piece. Despite its majestic appearance, the Château has always been a welcoming place conducive to moments of discussion around its wines.
