Chateauneuf du Pape La Nerthe 2005 (750ML)

92 Points, Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com: "Possessing a smoky, earthy nose, the 2005 Château La Nerthe Châteauneuf-du-Pape also has rich dark fruit (blackberry and cassis), spice and subtle leather notes that lead into a medium bodied, pure, precise palate. The mid-palate fills in with air and this has an edgy, structured personality with rich fruit and lots of ripe, fine grained tannins on the finish. Give this 3 to 5 years in the cellar and then drink over the following 10 to 12 years." 08/09
