E. Guigal (Chateau de Nalys) Chateauneuf-du-Pape Grand Vin 2017

$7999

A landmark bottle: 2017 was the first vintage that Guigal vinified at Château de Nalys from start to finish after acquiring this storied Châteauneuf estate. The drought-marked 2017 vintage yielded tiny, intensely concentrated berries, and you can feel that density in the glass. Sourced from the holy trinity of Nalys parcels — La Crau, Bois Sénéchal, and Nalys — this is a Grenache-led blend with Syrah, Mourvèdre, Counoise, and Muscardin, raised 18 months in a mix of barrel and large cask. Already showing brilliantly at eight years on, with another decade-plus of upside.

"Bright ruby. Ripe black and blue fruits, potpourri, incense and baking spices on the deeply perfumed, expansive nose. Coats the palate with sweet boysenberry, black raspberry and floral pastille flavors that are sharpened by emerging mineral and cracked pepper flourishes. Shows the depth and power of the vintage but comes off quite lively, delivering strong dark berry thrust on the long, gently tannic finish."

"Out of bottle, the 2017 Chateauneuf du Pape Grand Vin seems to have closed down a bit. Although still impressive for its concentration and length, it seems a bit chunky, delivering muscular black cherry fruit and hints of cedar, clove and leather. Full-bodied and tannic, it could use another year or two of cellaring and then drink well for a decade." —Robert Parker

"Ripe and juicy, with engaging blackberry, black currant and black cherry paste flavors, wrapped in brambly grip and scored by licorice root and sweet tobacco accents on the finish. Shows a tug of dark earth throughout."

Wine Enthusiast

97 points

"Piquant hits of shaved peppercorn and clove lend warmth to rich, glossy black plum and mulberry in this penetrating red. A blend of Grenache and Syrah accented by smaller proportions of three other regional red grapes, it's full in body but thrilling and fresh, lifted by a crush of minerality and lingering traces of leather, earth and sage. Drink through 2040."
