CHATEAU RAYAS Reserve, Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2013 Bottle
About this wine
Château Rayas Réserve Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Château Rayas Réserve is one of the Rhône’s most singular wines. Made entirely from Grenache, it comes from 10 hectares of north-facing vines grown on sandy soils—an unusual site within Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The Reynaud family has worked this land for generations, and the approach remains resolutely traditional: hand harvesting, whole-bunch fermentation, no destemming, and ageing in old foudres. No new oak is used, and the wine is bottled without fining or filtration.
Rayas is known for its aromatic lift and textural finesse. Each vintage shows red cherry, wild strawberry, garrigue and spice on the nose, with a supple, detailed palate and a long, savoury finish. It ages well but is never about weight—it’s about perfume, balance and quiet intensity. Production is small, and demand comes from collectors worldwide. Among Rhône wines, there is nothing quite like it. Rayas remains a benchmark for its style and consistency over time.
