Domaine du Pegau Chateauneuf-du-Pape 'Cuvee Reservee' 2018

97 Points Wine Enthusiast

The Cuvée Réservée is Pegau's crown jewel, a profoundly ripe yet deeply nuanced wine made from a Grenache-dominant blend of 13 regional red grape varieties. Vinified entirely in whole bunches and matured in large 2-year-old oak casks, its black plum and cherry are sonorous and piercing, accented by whiffs of black pepper, leather and sage. It drinks beautifully young.
