Winemaker Notes

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, 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!

The La Négly Chardonnay Oppidum has a very light straw yellow color in the glass. The wine is extremely fresh with good acidity and an expressive nose in which pear plays the leading role, but we also smell a tiny bit of vanilla. The taste is very fruity and juicy, and has a wonderful balance between ripeness and freshness. A delicious, fresh glass of white wine. Also because it is modest in alcohol, this is a wonderful aperitif or glass on the terrace.
