La Nerthe's white is a blend of Clairette, Bourboulenc, Roussanne and Grenache Blanc. The result is a slightly floral wine that's full bodied yet lacking flesh on the midpalate. The apricot and citrus flavors finish with surprising freshness.

La Nerthe's late-ripening Mourvèdre typically shines the brightest in warm vintages, which 2008 was not. The result is a leathery, peppery wine with rather crisp, cherry-inflected fruit. Drink it over the next several years.

La Nerthe is usually quite structured, so while the 2007 is riper and creamier than most vintages, it still retains decent acidity to balance things out. Leather, spice and cherry flavors pick up hints of coffee and chocolate on the finish. Drink it over the next 10–12 years.
