The 1989 Château La Nerthe Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée des Cadettes wasn?t as big a departure from the Burgundies as you would think. Showing complex aromas of smoky, herbed dark fruits, tobacco, dried meats, leather and licorice on the nose; if not for the tobacco and meaty/herb character, this would pass undetected in a blind lineup of mature Burgs. The silky smooth palate was medium bodied with ripe fruit, a layered texture and a long finish. In the middle of its drinking window from Magnum, I would lineup any 750s from drinking over the near term.
