Château la Négly is located in the Languedoc, on the banks of the Étang de Pissévache on the foothills of the Massif of La Clape. Négly is owned by the Paux-Rosset family, and daughter Marion makes the wine, assisted by oenologist Claude Gros. The great diversity of soils, height difference and location (up to ten meters from the tidal edge!), ensures a great variety in style and power, but there is one characteristic that connects all wines: great precision and a strong degree of minerality. The quality of Négly has not gone unnoticed by Parker either: Parker has repeatedly awarded high ratings (up to 99 points) to various wines from Négly!
The grapes come from an old vineyard of only 3.2HA in size. Only a few thousand bottles of this top wine are made and the Netherlands only receives a few boxes of this top wine. Despite a huge list of dessert-sounding descriptions - blackberries, vanilla, baking spices, blueberries, liquorice - the La Négly La Clape La Porte du Ciel is a dry, savory wine full of character. A big, rich Syrah-based offering aged for two years in new French oak, it's full of flavor and velvety in texture - and surprisingly easy to drink given its size and strength, finishing with an almost salty note and incredible length . (96)/100 Parker.
