Château de Nalys blanc AOP Châteauneuf-du-Pape 0.75L

White Châteauneuf-du-Pape is a rarity — less than seven percent of the appellation is planted with white grapes. The Château de Nalys blanc is one of the style-defining representatives of this small but characterful category.

Château de Nalys is located in the heart of the appellation, on the large plateau north of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, where the famous galets soil of round pebbles stores the heat of the day and releases it slowly at night. The winery has belonged to the Guigal family since 2017, who have fundamentally renewed it — both in the vineyards and in the cellar. The basis of this cuvée is Bourboulenc, one of the oldest indigenous grape varieties of the southern Rhône, known for its natural freshness and aromatic depth.

In the glass, it shows pale gold. On the nose, white flowers, ripe pear, and a hint of anise, underneath a mineral note reminiscent of the stony soil. On the palate, medium body, invigorating acidity, and a long, slightly salty-spicy finish — typical for Bourboulenc on this terroir.

Serve it at 12–14 °C with grilled sea bass with fennel vegetables, a bouillabaisse, or a creamy goat cheese from Provence.
