    The vineyards of Château La Nerthe are planted on clay-limestone soils, typical of the region, which contribute to the complexity of the aromas. The hot, dry Mediterranean climate, combined with cool nights, allows for optimal ripening of the grapes. The estate extends across sunny terraces, where each plot is carefully cultivated to express the best of the terroir. It is in this enchanting setting that healthy, vigorous vines flourish, producing grapes of superior quality.

    Owner and history

    Today, Château La Nerthe is owned by a passionate group who have preserved the estate's heritage and reputation. The current owners are committed to respecting traditions while innovating in winemaking practices. Their dedication to quality and sustainability is reflected in every bottle produced. They have an unwavering love for the terroir and strive to pass this passion on to future generations. Thanks to their vision, the estate continues to produce wines that tell a story—the story of the land and those who cultivate it.

    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Château La Nerthe is a meticulous process, blending tradition and modernity. The grapes are harvested by hand, then destemmed and gently crushed. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled vats to preserve the aromas. After fermentation, the wines are aged in oak barrels, which imparts a beautiful structure and aromatic complexity. This aging process lasts several months, allowing the different grape varieties to harmonize before bottling. Each step is carefully considered to reveal the wine's identity and its connection to the terroir.
