Matured primarily in stainless steel, this fresh-fruited red is packed with summer-sweet blackberry and plum goodness edged by salty, smoky minerality. A Grenache-dominant blend sourced from each of de Nalys' three plots, it's an immediate and hedonistic yet soulful wine best enjoyed now to 2026.

Saturated ruby. Ripe, spice- and smoke-accented aromas of black raspberry, cherry cola and garrigue on the assertively perfumed nose. Juicy red and dark berry flavors are braced by a spine of smoky minerality and pick up licorice and cured meat nuances with aeration. Concentrated but lively, with no rough edges. A floral quality emerges on the persistent finish, which features even tannins that lend shape and gentle grip.

Rated 93 by Wine Spectator
A silky yet rich and persistent offering, with leading red tea notes, mulled cherry and raspberry fruit at the core and a long, subtle mineral edge curling around the perfumed finish. Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault, Muscardin, Counoise and Mourvèdre. Drink now through 2032. 800 cases imported.

The 2018 Châteauneuf Du Pape Nalys Saintes Pierres De Nalys showed well, with a pretty, silky, elegant style as well as notes of framboise, strawberries, and peppery herbs. It’s more up-front and mid-weight than I remember from barrel, but it’s still a very pretty, elegant red that does well in the vintage.

Region: Rhone Valley

The southern French wine region of the Rhone Valley has been home to wine-makers for over two thousand years, with the first grapevines of the region being cultivated in around 600 BCE when the ancient Greeks arrived with their knowledge of viticulture and eagerness to produce more wine. Today, the region is famed around the world for the excellence of its produce, and has dozens of wineries making the most of the wide range of grape varietals which flourish there. In the northern sub-region, the continental climate and brisk winds coming off the Central Massif allow wineries to grow a smaller range of varietals – predominantly Syrah, Marsanne, Roussane and Viognier, whereas the southern, more Mediterranean sub-region allows far more range. Here, dozens of varietals are grown for the production of white, red and rosé wines, all packed full of flavor and able to express the unique terroir they are grown on.
