Chateau de Nalys Saintes Pierres de Nalys Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2020 (91 WA)
“With just 20% aged in demi-muids (the rest was in foudre or tank), the 2020 Châteauneuf du Pape Saintes Pierres is only slightly toasty and cedary, with most of the wine’s aromas consisting of ripe black cherries and raspberries. […] this full-bodied effort is supple, charming and easy-drinking, with hints of baking spices that linger delicately on the finish.”– J.C 9/23

Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Translated as "holy stones", a play on the soils and history of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, the second red wine to Château de Nalys is an altogether different animal. Differing varietal and plot selections, fermentation, and aging result in a wine that is rich and ample, yet offers immense direct and approachable pleasure; a wine of red fruits, supple structure and brightness.
