Chateau Rayas, La pialade 2014

La Pialade is one of the Côtes du Rhône of the mythical Château Rayas in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Jacques Reynaud has produced exceptional wines for a long time on this unique terroir and this quality is nowadays carried on by his nephew Emmanuel Reynaud. Aromas of jam-like, red fruit abound when drinking and Côtes du Rhône La Pialade is flavoursome, refined and elegant. This wine blends the grapes of Rayas and Fonsalette which, according to Emmanuel Reynaud, do not deserve to make this great wine. It is therefore his “petit vin”…and yet it is incredible. Unbelievably good value for money.
