title: Domaine de Nalys 2009 Le Châtaignier Red (Châteauneuf-du-Pape)
description: Le Châtaignier is a luxury cuvée of the domaine's oldest vines, approximately 96% Grenache and 4% Mourvèdre. Bright red fruit flavors of raspberry and cherry are complemented by coffee and chocolate notes (the wine spends four months in oak). For a 2009, it's crisp and on the firm side, so give it until next year, and then drink it through 2025.
variety: Rhône-style Red Blend
designation: Le Châtaignier
