Old-vine Grenache, grown under a cool, pine-shaded northeastern exposure, is vinified with minimal intervention to preserve purity of fruit. The 2001 shows a lovely ruby-garnet colour, with an expressive nose of crushed strawberry and raspberry liqueur. The palate is sweet without being cloying, its silky texture carrying through to a finish marked by a whisper of garrigue and fine, soft tannin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Makes It Special\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRayas defies Châteauneuf convention: sandy, stoneless soils, a cooler northern exposure and low yields from decades-old Grenache vines produce a wine of unusual finesse and perfume rather than power. This singularity, paired with famously limited production, gives every bottling of Rayas a rarity and individuality matched by few other estates in the southern Rhône.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Liquide","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45047998545963,"sku":"Rayas Chateauneuf Du Pape 2001","price":1760.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/0883\/3579\/files\/rayas_553228a9-307c-4ae7-9672-ca52df95a602.webp?v=1787605652","url":"https:\/\/liquide.store\/products\/rayas-chateauneuf-du-pape-2001","provider":"Liquide","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
