The Château de Nalys vineyard is rooted in a rich and varied soil, where the rounded pebbles, typical of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, retain the sun's heat. This soil, a blend of clay and limestone, provides the vines with optimal drainage while preserving the necessary moisture. The region's Mediterranean climate, with its hot, dry summers, promotes perfect grape ripening. The vines, some several decades old, receive meticulous care, allowing them to fully express the richness of the terroir.

Vinification and aging

Winemaking at Château de Nalys is imbued with respect for the fruit and the terroir. The hand-harvested grapes ensure rigorous selection. After delicate destemming, the berries are placed in vats for traditional fermentation at controlled temperatures, allowing for the extraction of color and aromas. Aging takes place in oak barrels, where the wine develops complexity and roundness, while subtly integrating the woody notes. This meticulous process reflects the estate's commitment to quality and authenticity.
