Château de Nalys Saintes Pierres de Nalys Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc 2020
“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. A blend of 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 10% assorted other varieties, 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

The second white wine to the Château de Nalys Grand Vin Blanc has a character all its own, with a strongly different varietal and plot composition, and like its red Saintes Pierres counterpart, a fermentation, and aging geared towards emphasizing freshness. The hallmark seamlessness of Guigal's white wines is especially evident in this wine, which is unlike any Châteauneuf white we have experienced in its grace and lift.
