Château Rayas Réservé Pignan 2014

Châteauneuf-du-Pape, France
8.0
WineSaint
Perfumed and graceful, with raspberry, rose petals and garrigue flowing across the palate. Emmanuel Reynaud's sandy soils deliver remarkable elegance here. The grenache shows crystalline purity and weightless intensity. Built on mineral backbone rather than power, this demands serious cellaring. Drink 2025-2040.

Château Rayas
→Château Rayas is the most mythologized estate in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, producing pure Grenache of startling finesse from old vines on sandy, sheltered soils. Its wines age for decades and routinely redefine what the appellation can be.
