Château de Nalys
Châteauneuf-du-Pape Grand Vin Blanc 2019
Chateauneuf-du-Pape
Château de Nalys Châteauneuf-du-Pape Grand Vin Blanc showcases Guigal’s expertise in Rhône white wines, combining power, elegance, and expression. The wine offers an intensely aromatic nose of white flowers, citrus, and a hint of vanilla. On the palate, a deep minerality complements the floral and citrus notes, creating a penetrating presence. With 18% of the estate planted to white varieties, Nalys produces one of the most complex and expressive whites in the region. Guigal’s leadership in Rhône whites is evident in this exceptional wine.

Saintes Pierres de Nalys Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc
Châteauneuf-du-Pape
The second white wine to the Chateau 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 Chateauneuf white we have experienced in its grace and lift.

Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Translated as "holy stones", a play on the soils and history of Chateauneuf-du-Pape, the second red wine to Chateau 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.

It defines the estate style with a precision of fruit, spice and mineral structures and, notably, a beautifully composed structure that builds and unfolds.
