Chateau de Nages JT Blanc Costieres de Nimes AOC 2019

93 POINTS JEB DUNNUCK!

 

"The more Roussanne-dominated 2019 Costières de Nîmes JT Blanc can be thought of as the flagship from this estate. It incorporates a splash of Viognier and Grenache Blanc and is brought up all in larger format oak. Offering a richer bouquet of salty orchard fruit, toasted bread, spice, and honeysu ckle, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, a layered, expansive mouthfeel, nicely integrated acidity, and a clean finish. I like it today, yet I suspect it will evolve nicely for 5-6 years, if not longer." - Jeb Dunnuck

 

"Dedicated to our visionary great grandfather, this cuvée of northern Rhône character is from our very best parcels. Its minerality and freshness will surprise you.

 

I have to admit that we feared the worst… but despite unusual weather conditions, we came out smiling with a slightly smaller crop than 2018 but of excellent quality, proof yet again that our terroir is well suited for grape vines, and the incredible resilience of that plant.

Beautiful golden color with greenish glints. Filled with scents of lime-tree, anise, apricot and toasted almond. Full bodied, with scents of candied fruits and acacia. The lush finish is sustained by fresh wooded notes." - Chateau de Nages
