    Château La Nerthe 2000 Rouge Red (Châteauneuf-du-Pape)

    This is slightly oaky, with buttery aromas mixing with hard spices to create a somewhat jumbled but interesting bouquet. The fat fruit falls into the plum and berry category, while the finish is firm and fruity, but rather basic and one-dimensional. As with any good red, it softens and grows more whole and complex with time. In this case, patience will be rewarded.
