For five centuries, natural springs and a mosaic of soils and subsoils have given the estate’s wines freshness and elegance. 

The vineyard’s 92 hectares are divided into 57 plots or “climates”. Each of these plots has its own identity due to the unique combination of soils and grape varieties.

Indeed, if the entire vineyard benefits from a typically Mediterranean climate, fortunately tempered by the Mistral, the diversity of the soils and subsoils creates a genuine mosaic of micro-terroirs. To which is added a palette of 13 grape varieties! For five centuries, generations have followed one another at Château La Nerthe to find the perfect match between soil, subsoil, and grape varieties.

The estate has two other valuable allies. First, natural springs flow from each side of the castle. Then, there are the numerous plots of wood and undergrowth, which stretch over nearly 10 hectares. Together, they guarantee the signature freshness of Château La Nerthe wines, as well as the biodiversity of both flora and fauna.
