Description
Château la Négly is located in the Languedoc, on the banks of the Étang de Pissévache on the foothills of the La Clape Massif. 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 tide's edge!) ensures a great variety in style and strength, but there is one characteristic that unites all wines: great precision and a strong degree of minerality. The quality of Négly has not gone unnoticed by Parker: he has repeatedly given high ratings (up to 99 points) to various Négly wines!
The La Négly La Falaise Rouge is a blend of Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre coming from a vineyard from the famous Appelation La Clape literally located on the high tide line of the sea. The wine is fermented and matured in barriques of (partly) French oak. In the glass the wine has an intense ruby red color. In the nose aromas of blackberries, cassis, coffee, chocolate and black olives. The taste is full and powerful, very concentrated with a very long, soft aftertaste.

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 family has been making wine for years, but in recent years this has been characterized by an extreme growth in quality. The great diversity of soils, difference in height 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: he has repeatedly awarded high (up to 99 points) ratings to various wines from Négly!
